Railroading Drivatars

Well, the recent update didn’t address this.
Since I’m going to complete all the offroad based championships at the moment, this is getting really annoying.
Especially when you have a wall to your right, one opponent in your front, your back and the left so you’re basically surrounded by walls with no way to escape.

Therefore, Playground and Turn 10, to whom it may concern, please address this!

A few days ago I was cruising around St. Martin in my Golf R, and when I was just about to go around a corner, some dude in a freaking Raptor came barreling in at 200 mph and smashed into the back of my car.
