> More acceleration is always beneficial in cases where you have to perform a safety maneuver or evade something.
That's what people want to believe but unless you have been trained by professional chances are more acceleration = more risks 99.9% of the time. In your example you can very easily go from being victim of an accident to being at fault in an accident you caused.
> And that’s not even talking about stuff like avoiding something on the road or stuff falling out of a truck bed in front of you or just absolutely any kind of an avoidance safety maneuver.
If something is in front of you acceleration is not really a concern. You either need good brakes or very agile car coupled with extremely good reaction time.
It's as simple as asking yourself if roads would be a safer place if everyone had a Nissan gtr.
