Engine breaking on a motorcycle can be quite significant as well. I've thought about this being a problem there too.

- yial 3y agoIn the safety classes I’ve taken, there’s usually been training (albeit brief) of being aware if others are behind you, but building the habit of using the engine to decelerate that you flash your brake lights and or apply enough brake to trigger them without heavily braking. This was also an issue when I had a larger manual car with a medium size (4.6l) v8. At lower speeds <45mph, it was entirely possible for me to be significantly decelerating using only the engine, where I would make sure to at least flash my brake lights several times.
