I have a Mach-E and drive exclusively in one pedal mode. With my car you can still use the brake if you want. But honestly once you adjust to it, it becomes very instinctive to let it accelerate and decelerate based on the traffic patterns around you.
Now, if someone’s doing some stupid shit in Seattle during rush hour traffic I end up using the brake more but for 95% of my daily driving I’m just using the one pedal.
It’s honestly more jarring going back to driving my truck with a traditional setup than it was adjusting to the one pedal setup.
Like a lot of things about cars today (your bright-ass lights, size making it impossible to see around you, that fucking beeping) this is annoying for those around you because the brake lights don’t go on your car just suddenly decelerates.
Can confirm this is not the case. I’m 100% confident there is a decel that will trigger the lights, I’m also 100% sure it’s not “normal car coasting” decel.

Actually they do, if you would slow down faster than a normal car would from coasting the brake lights do turn on.
