If someone rear ends you because you have B-mode or one pedal enabled then they're following way too close to begin with. Way too close and/or not paying attention at all. B-mode doesn't slam on the brakes. It engages regen to decelerate at perhaps a greater rate than rolling resistance.
- jacquesm 9y agoIt's the same as engaging the handbrake while driving. If someone rear ends you when you do that it is your fault, not theirs. The expectation is that if you reduce speed at a rate associated with braking that your brake lights should come on.
- CalChris 9y agoI strongly agree that the brake lights should come on in B-mode. That doesn't happen on the Leaf or on the Volt. That is however a different matter and it should be the law. But B-mode with brake lights is a fine idea.
