Such tragic news. My condolences to the family and friends of the passenger.

The S2000 is a fun car (not dangerous) but like every car there is a limit. If VSA is kicking in, the car is telling you to back off the throttle just a bit and re-gain control. As always, if you want to test that VSA there are always track days.

Stay safe and enjoy the S2000 with your love ones at proper speed limit.

I also agree. Just hope that God is with the family of the passenger and maybe he or she R.I.P.

good lord that looks bad. I am a little confused on who started the accident though. Was it another Honda that is not in the picture who started it?

As far as the "Honda Sedan" mentioned by the article, I think that may just be bad reporting that got the car mixed up. RIP to the passenger and a speedy recovery, this made headlines statewide.
