Braking news: Tesla preps firmware fling to 'fix' Model 3's inability to stop in time

The way I look at it

Even improving stopping distance by a single foot could mean the difference between your head going through the windscreen and not.

It seems incredible that braking would be so terrible in a Tesla but perhaps the disc brakes are not up to the task of stopping a heavier EV. Maybe if they threw regen on in an emergency situation it would slow the car faster.
