Four years to be exact. At least in the US. The NHTSA mandated all new cars sold will have to have some form of electronic stability control by 2012, and it will be phased in process starting with 50% of new cars next year.
In other words, NHTSA is saying, you're all to stupid too avoid accidents yourself, here's an electronic crutch whether you want it or not.
At least in a lot of cars it comes in today there's the option to disable it. Stupid NHTSA.
