TC is useless in that scenario. I had that happen to me in june when an old lady merged into the expressway, I was on the left lane and the merge is on the right as it typically is... I was behind a ford taurus with about 2 or 3 car lengths of separation, the taurus passes her and I'm following, then the damn bitch switched lanes abruptly in front of me and she was doing almost 20 below the speed limit. Good brakes saved my ass, had she done that a spit second later, my bimmer would probably had been totaled as she would have clipped me.
