Pressing on the brake pedal will stop Tesla and every other car too every time,
asuming the brakes work.
Computer aka AP can NOT overide brakes.
Some dumbel obviously steped on go pedal instead of brake and blames the car.
Tesla has log to prove exactly that.
I noticed There are people who use left foot on brake and right on acelerator,sometimes at same time !!!
easy to get confused in a hurry.
:) Hi, Back in the old days, Ford products depended on the brake light switch to shut off the cruise control; This was before the vacuum dump switch was used. If you were using your cruise control and your stop light switch failed, hitting the brakes would cause the cruise control to go FULL THROTTLE. And no amount of pressure from the brakes could stop the car. I turned the ignition off and hit the brakes as hard as possible with both feet on the brake pedal and pulling my body with both hands on the steering wheel. Very close to crashing.
If the engine or motor wants to go, your brakes will not stop it.
