This thing scares me. It actively discourages you from using the brakes. If you try to decelerate without planning 15 seconds ahead it will go off. Stop for that light that just turned yellow? It goes off. Lift in 2nd on level ground? It goes off. It genuinely scares the shit out of me that we are sharing the road with people playing this thing’s game. $20 a month is not worth the AWFUL habits this thing will teach you over 6 months. Brakes are a key element of safely operating a vehicle and anything that discourages you from using them is beyond bad. Any use of the brakes as the maneuvering tool and safety device they are is counted against you by this thing.
