    In case you’re not being sarcastic, this is about 2-footed drivers. They tend to always have their left foot “resting” on the brake pedal “just in case.” What they ignore is there’s a small amount of movement in the brake pedal that will light up the lights but not engage the brakes. So even if they’re not just wearing down the brakes, they look like they’re braking ALL. THE TIME.

    I also hate this.

      My brake lights were “sticky” when I first bought my car, husband noticed while driving behind me and accused me of riding the brake.

      My car is a 6 speed manual. I couldn’t do that if I tried.

      Back to the dealer, they figured it out and fixed it.
