Three times now - once with a sedan, twice with the hatchback - after several minutes of driving the client has become unresponsive, requiring a forced shutdown. Anyone else experienced this and able to shed some light? I've put ~8 hours into this experimental so far and whilst it might be coincidence, the only crashes I've experienced have been whilst driving.

Hello Mithrawndo and thank you for the report.
When the issue occurs for you the next time, can you keep an eye on your CPU usage and let us know if there are any changes in the usage from your usual gameplay? Also if you are using any third party program which is able to show the FPS, does the FPS drop to 1 when the client becomes unresponsive? And have you also experienced such issue on foot?
Regards,
Geez

I can confirm I've not experienced the issue on foot (~10 hours gameplay) and I've only experienced the issue using the 64 bit client (~6 hours gameplay).
CPU/memory usage were not abnormal; around 30% CPU use and peaking at ~65% memory use.
I'm using the steam overlay to see FPS, and when the client locks up the FPS counter shows what I'd expect: Around 30FPS in large cities and in excess of 80FPS in quiet, remote areas. The lockup is instantaneous and I'm unable to use ctrl-shift-esc to open task manager, alt-enter to window the application or shift-tab to open the steam overlay. Ctrl-alt-del allows me to logout, restoring shell access.
I'm inclined to think this graphic related, so for reference I'm running Radeon 16.6

Around another 12 hours in and I've been able to confirm this bug popping up on the 32 bit client and can confirm it's been seen - albeit far less frequently - on foot too.
What information can I provide to help you track this little bugger down?
