Do the brake lights come on when you slow with regen braking?
Only if you are exceedingly aggressive on the regen. I can come to a stop in many circumstances without the brake lights ever illuminating.
I've read some of those as well, and I call BS.I've been reading another thread about this, and someone said that having been rear ended he felt that the lack of rear brake lights when regen is a significant factor.
When I was learning to drive, my father passed down some advice from his father - imagine the stupidest thing another driver could do, and they will find a way to do something far stupider. If you're resting your left foot anywhere other than the dead pedal (the "storage spot" to the leftmost of the footwell), you probably have no business behind the wheel...(Thera are also a fair number of people that drive with their left foot on the brakes so the lights are always on.)
Or following driver stupidity/cluelessness (see above). I've been rear ended three times, all while sitting, stopped, at a traffic light (little, if any, damage all 3 times). Two of them happened when the drivers hit the gas when the light turned green, without noticing that the car in front of them still had their brake lights on and wasn't moving. I mean, really, why are you even looking at the traffic light if you aren't the first car in line?!?IMHO, it's driving style that causes rear-end collisions.
Yes, regen trails off a slow speeds. You need to use the brake to come to a complete stop (below ~5 mph).I thought it was impossible to stop completely without using the brakes. So what's up here? Maybe on an (up)hill....
It's not impossible, but it seldom occurs. Uphill is the usual reason. If you are gliding to a stop, you have been decelerating gradually for a very long time.I thought it was impossible to stop completely without using the brakes. So what's up here? Maybe on an (up)hill....
have you ever been behind a vehicle with a manual transmission? do you stare at the vehicle in front of yours rear end or do you look beyond it? just curiousAnd you don't find following vehicles being a bit late slowing down when they can only evaluate the reduction in separation?

When you use turn signals the display shows pop up turn signals. I wish there are pop up brake lights on the display as it is quite difficult to see brake lights on the car in the dashboard display.Do the brake lights come on when you slow with regen braking?
