Uhmmn. Seems like having only an accelerator pedal would be much better. It could be the same size as the current pedal and Tesla could implement it in an OTA update. “True one pedal driving”I had a crazy thought, hear me out:
All new cars automatically accelerate on their own at a linear rate and the ONLY pedal is the brake pedal. One. Big. Pedal.
Can’t have unintended acceleration unless of a total and complete failure of primary and backup braking systems! You modulate acceleration by using the brake pedal: Take the foot off the brake, accelerate like a P100D Raven. Slowly let the brake pedal come up, car starts to move at walking pace.
Done. Problem solved.
