A UK-centric Electric Vehicles community, where discussion/news of the wider European continent is welcome.
All discussion of EVs (and hybrids for the moment), charging networks, etc, welcome!
No USA/Americas news unless it is relevant to the UK/Europe - most of the existing EV communities on Lemmy are awash with US discussion, please use one of those. US news and discussion will be removed.

The brakes on electric cars are not magic software defined wizardry they are normal hydraulics… so if one was to push hard on the brake pedal even with the motors engaged it would slow down. And it would be extremely easy to prove because the pads would be heavily worn presumably if he was stamping on them and the motors were so powerful to keep it at 30!
“Old man cant drive new car” until there is some more evidence. Sad really! Thanks for sharing for the lol
