    Yeah. That’s always been my nightmare driving a regular car too, the “stop” and “go faster” buttons are right next to each other and in a place you can’t see them. Such a weird standard, presumably a result of the requirement for physical linkages from early in car history. Would have been nice if electric vehicles had provided an opportunity to rethink that paradigm.

      The reason for the gas/brake being next to eachother is due to the historical need to work the clutch pedal at the same time as the gas/brake in manual transmissions. However most modern EVs (including tesla model 3s) have single-pedal driving (press to go, release to slow), so the standard is indeed changing!

          Whocares?

          Edit: No, hang on - Sincerely, why do you care? People make typos all the time and this isn’t reddit circa 2012, a person’s worth is no longer evaluated entirely on their passing a proofread.

            Not op but I care. I’d like to make as few grammatical mistakes as possible, so I welcome any correction or tip.
