The brakes generally seem to provide too little deceleration for the first portion of pedal travel, then too much, making it difficult to approach stop signs or traffic roundabouts smoothly.
Speaking of absent - minded, one more convenient safety feature is the available Adaptive Cruise Control with Stop and Go technology that can slow the vehicle down while on cruise control if approaching another vehicle quickly and can even bring the car to a stop, or try to, if that other car isn't moving, such as an abrupt traffic jam while on the highStop and Go technology that can slow the vehicle down while on cruise control if approaching another vehicle quickly and can even bring the car to a stop, or try to, if that other car isn't moving, such as an abrupt traffic jam while on the highstop, or try to, if that other car isn't moving, such as an abrupt traffic jam while on the highway.
