I'm not crazy about "Immobilization!"

I'm not crazy about "Immobilization!"
Gents: Smoke7

I understand and accept vehicles becoming immobilized as a result of enemy fire.

But, I have a harder time accepting immobilization... simply as a result of moving? What exactly is the percentage chance? Idea2

Case in point. Recently had a perfectly "good" Panther G moving from one clear hex to another become immobilized! Yikes No enemy fire. No obstacles. No mines. Just rumbling alone... minding its own business... and than stopped dead in its tracks! ;)

Here's what the SB user manual states:

"Secondly, as a Vehicle moves across the ground, there is a certain chance that the movement will cause the Vehicle to become Immobile. For a given movement from one hex to another with a movement cost of C and the Move Immobile Factor parameter data value F, the probability of the movement causing the Vehicle to become Immobile is C * F."

So, am I just the receiver of "bad luck" on the battlefield? It's got to be a really "small" percentage chance for movement-only immobilization to occur - correct? Idea2
