Default totaled my S

Hey all,
I turned into the center divide on the fwy while reaching for my phone that fell onto the passenger floor. I must have tugged on the steering wheel when i leaned over. The quick steering was part of the prob so don't make the same mistake as i did. Btw, I was not texting but was using the Waze app.

If my phone falls, I leave it until I get stopped. Lesson learned: While driving, only focus on driving. Glad you're ok.

Yes. This is the reason for my post. Don't make the same mistake. The S has such a quick steering ratio that a snall tug on the wheel caused it to swerve into the center divider.
