I was thinking about this when I recently test drove a Tesla. The accelerator acts like a brake when you take your foot off, the de- acceleration is very harsh almost like applying the brake. Does this action engage the brake lights?
that is a very good point, and no, brake lights are not automatically applied despite very impressive regenerative braking. I have followed Teslas and been aware of this, enough to make sure you don't follow too closely, say, when thinking of overtaking. Tesla anoraks would be able to fill in more, but the dual motor types display the best regenerative braking, it used to be adjustable but I think they've started to remove this feature on some models.
People who build fancy extensions on their houses, have hgv’s turn up at their house every day for six months dropping off materials while completely tearing the arse out of the road surface for everyone else. Should be made to pay for the pothole repairs afterwards imo.
People who drive SUV’s can fuck off and pay a large vehicle tax too. And stay off the pavements you twats.
Invariably parked badly and almost always have a single occupant (usually elderly of middle aged lady). Go out into the country where a bigger 4x4 might be needed and you see very few of them. Farmers would laugh in your face if you suggested they buy one.
They’re just getting bigger and bigger and driven my more and more idiots who can’t even tell how wide their own car is when they drive them. Or they’re so worried about scratching their precious heap of metal they take illegal matters into their own hands (like mounting pavements as mentioned). And if you’re stuck behind one and you’re not in one yourself, you can’t see a single fucking thing around, over or through them. And they still veer round drain hole covers on the road the absolute fucking cretins.
