More often than not, I have my foot on the accelerator and not the brake when I am using AP. I don't drive a lot in general, but over the tens of thousands of miles on AP I had it hit the brakes hard enough to be a problem only once. It's definitely randomly slowed down many times, but with your foot on the accelerator it's very easy to override before it drops more than a couple MPH. Now, I've also heard people say that the phantom braking issue can be really violent and so it's very possible I've just never experienced true phantom braking, but based on how many of the drivers behind the initial wreck slammed into each other it's clear many folks do not pay enough attention or leave enough following distance to be safe.
