The Beast in me - bug on final race

[Dr.Macari]

When you are supposed to go confront the ♥♥♥♥♥♥ that killed Claire husband, you can not exit the car and sit there doing nothing.

Thank you my friend, it is bugged to me, but I will try again.

if you're still having trouble with this, i found that it was because I was following to close after he turns off? I went painfully slow, and then it worked

ya keep in mind game is 99% lazy scripted you litteraly have to just stay semi near him until the game has the moment in time (making sure it has the chance) to give you the option to finish race or go after him at the 1 turn off then you have to just follow him semi close until his scripted crash happens.

If you break either script/chance game can bug out.

(A also minor "bug" aka lazy oversite is if you do a multi part quest make sure you do it all in order otherwise you will miss out on some talks and the like ie scanning things not suppose to yet and also possibly getting a part of it stuck in quest log until fully completing quest)

Thank you guys, this worked indeed!

After he pulls off the highway damaged, let him ride, don't wreck him. He gets T-Boned in a intersection up ahead (scripted). I kept wrecking him before the scripted crash and it wouldn't let me out of the car.

OK went through the trouble of grabbing my phone for my authenticator code so I could log in on the site and weigh in here. For reference it is 10/20/2022 and I have latest game patch per steam, nvidia drivers up to date.

I followed some of the previous suggestions about not following too closely, letting the sequence play out organically. I was still stuck in the car.

A previous poster also mentioned that you have to get in the car to get Claire's ride, the beast. THIS IS NOT TRUE!

I did the "nah I'll find my own way option", assuming I was foregoing the beast (which honestly who cares trash ride) to avoid getting stuck in the passenger seat again, and Claire went through an abbreviated dialogue about being OK, whatever OK is, and then she gives you the ride.

SO TLDR

Just don't ride in the car.

PS For what its worth I tried the dialogue options to get the dude's car (prevent Claire killing him) and it didn't work so I botched an earlier part of the quest line. Not sure if this has to do with recreating the bug.
