It is not a magic button that let's you drive around like a bat out of hell without worry (and the fact that people seem to think it is worries me). It prevents oversteer and slippage...not complete stupidity.

FYI, you are not going to get into trouble for turning off VDC. You're going to get into trouble for driving in a manner that would crash your car into a house. You'd get into the exact same amount of trouble whether VDC was on or off, and you can accomplish the same stupdity of hitting a house either way.
this I know what Im saying is when it comes to a company paying lots of money out to cover a claim for a huge hospital bill and repair to property and those hurt will investigate to posibbly get out of it and if they find things that are done to disable safety devices they have a way out. So hard wiring any safety features off is asking for trouble. Not mention a big law suit to boot from the innocent ones.

Kinda like turning off the air bags and asking for coverage when you get hurt from not having them.
