Just a note for everyone, if your ASR starts activating unexpectedly, check your tires. You may be getting a flat. Fortunately, it starts to activate as the tire gets low, before it goes completely flat.

I believe this is because the tire with the lower pressure will have a smaller circumference and thus will have to turn more times/at a different speed from the fully inflated tire for a given distance. The computer senses this differential and guesses one of the wheels is losing traction.
