    How could a vehicle that may not disengage the accelerator when the brake is applied be allowed on the road??? And who at Tesla thought this was a perfectly fine feature to have?

      Do you know of any vehicles that do automatically disengage the accelerator for you when you press the brakes? It sounds like the driver was pushing both the brake and accelerator pedals at the same time. Not to defend Tesla, but this one seems like it could be the owner’s fault

      Maybe they don’t teach this anymore but when I took drivers ed we were taught to use the left foot lightly on the brake after going through a puddle to dry the brakes… I didn’t think cars were supposed to just ignore the gas pedal when the brakes are applied.

    Everyone ITT is acting like it says “may not stop”. That’s not what it says. Is says, "may or may not disengage THE ACCELERATOR "

    Is this dumb shit pressing the accelerator AND brake at the same time???

    120k and it thought I had dirt on Hillary.

    Okay, can someone explain to me what the fuck this means? Is this guy just speaking gibberish? Or am I out of yet another loop?

      Not sure if this is a serious correction, brake is correct.

      Edit: I think I get it?
