warning light

My wife tells me that the "car with the squigly lines" shows up sometimes. I asked her what she was doing, and she says she was going around corners fast. Is this normal, or am I going to take the keys from her?

Nah, just the traction control kicking in. I think that when she said "going around corners very fast" was something of an understatement :D During my test drive last Friday, I thought that I was taking the corners hard, but the TCS never kicked in.

I think you're right. She's a grandma of seven, so was probably driving like the fabled "little old lady from Pasadena" from the old song. I'll have to try it myself sometime, I've never seen the light come on.
