I personally think cars should have two brake light switches. one for when you're pressing the pedal at all, and one for when you're slamming on the pedal.
that way the people behind you know if you're just slowing down a little or actually braking.
Most modern cars now put the hazards on automatically when the driver brakes hard.
Source? I have never seen a single car that does this.
First time surprised me my because I didn't know the car had the feature. Slammed the brakes harder than normal and hazards flashed at double time. Driving a 2010 Alfa Romeo 159.
