Regenerative braking is specially dangerous in wet/snow conditions.
In teslas it’s even worse because it’s the rear wheels that brake the most. It’s like pulling the handbrake on the wet highway.
But it’s ok they have it as a warning in the manual “ Warning
In snowy or icy conditions Model Y may experience traction loss during regenerative braking.”[1]
So no liability for the company. It’s now the driver’s fault.
