High speed, relatively high mass, bad driving, bad driving experience.
I jumped into my friends Y to see if it was just dumb drivers or what... The interface is idiotic. Put the left blinker on and a video shows your rear left view... But in the center console.
Instead of looking left and seeing with their eyes, drivers process the image through a screen and don't get direct visual confirmation. There's got to be a mental disconnect here. (and a connection to some bad turning.)
Also, the turning radius is awful. Add that to the typical driver's fear of cranking a wheel to its limit when doing a U-turn and underestimating how hard they need to turn.
It's easier to undo a turn and let out the wheel than it is to correct your action after you've reached a point where the turn won't work.
