Or is the threat of a law-suit much stronger than it was compared to the good-old days when our cars did't have traction control to save us from ourselves

From the BBC article:

Consumer Reports, a popular US magazine, said it had judged the Lexus GX 460 a "Don't Buy: Safety Risk" because of a problem experienced during its standard emergency-handling tests.
"When pushed to its limits on our track's handling course, the rear of the GX we bought slid out until the vehicle was almost sideways before the electronic stability control system was able to regain control," it said.

Heck, I want a go!
