It is meant for offroad use at VERY slow speeds, not to slow your vehicle down on the roads. The idea of HDC is that if you go down a steep muddy track (for example) it will keep all four wheels tracking so you don't skid, and to keep the vehicle moving in a straight controllable manner. But this is done at walking speeds, not road speeds!
