Saw an old lady getting out of a BMW X7 M60i (the high performance version). I asked her what made her choose the M60i and she just said “I dunno, the salesman said it was the best one they had”.

    Yeah I know they do, but if the driver doesnt take their foot off the gas pedal, it doesnt break.

    Many electric cars, maybe all, have the same feature.

    Its the driver taking the foot off the pedal too early that makes the car break too early.

      You’re essentially asking them to accelerate towards a stop instead of temporarily incoveniencing you.

      Pro tip: 3 seconds in between you and the car in front of you. That way this won’t ever inconvenience you again.
