I saw a carful of kids last year in a Durango almost flip like that on the parkway after an indian cut them off last year. They avoided a huge truck on the side of the road by a foot. It was crazy....and scary.

There is a follow-up that mentioned a programming change was made to the SUVs that fixed the issue. Interesting to watch for sure.
