It’s not a perfect solution for EVs and Hybrids that can slow down quickly without pressing the brake. Technology connections has a full video on the matter, but basically things need to be updated for current tech if we want to avoid accidents due to information not being relayed to other drivers.
There are EVs that handle this by using a deceleration threshold, but that is not the same as just strapping an accelerometer to a car.
