I wasn't trying to paint the picture of "imperiling the oncoming driver" absent "instantaneous warp speed". The image is very dramatic though.

I think we've all been in situations where we can safely make the turn I described factoring in our perception of oncoming traffic speed, vehicle performance, weather conditions, etc. To have a vehicle that may not predictably perform in that situation could turn a relatively safe situation into a relatively unsafe situation and that is my concern.
