Do you know of any vehicles that do automatically disengage the accelerator for you when you press the brakes? It sounds like the driver was pushing both the brake and accelerator pedals at the same time. Not to defend Tesla, but this one seems like it could be the owner’s fault
The original post does not mention if he was applying the brake with the other foot while still depressing the accelerator, but it seems like the accelerator on the CT is monitored by software that then controls the motors. It would explain why it kept the motors going as the brake was used. Of course, if he was using one foot to brake and the other to press the accelerator, this is totally his fault.

Is there any other plausible explanation? I don’t understand what you were referring to here:
