Breaking away from mistakenly stepped on the accelerator, the car can achieve fuel “single-pedal” driving?

It stands to reason through the driver’s license test driver, has psychological and technical level through the test of legitimate driver; some obvious low-level error, it should not occur. However, the fact that an increasing number of novice drove the car out of the road, accompanied by the psychological stress caused by lack of experience, and erroneous operation derived, for example, the throttle as the brakes.



Many people think that this situation only in the country It appears, and mostly occurs in women and novice driver. But in fact, the overseas driver will appear throttle as the brakes, and mostly older age groups. Not long ago, in the UK there is a 82-year-old woman in the parking because of a series of operational errors, leading to backward dash car accident killed his friend for many years. In Japan, also because of the aging of the population travel by car, leading to the throttle when the brake operation often appear. Exactly which devices or functions to avoid such errors occur?

the so-called One Pedal, in fact, a single pedal operation. Simply put, additional functionality through the accelerator pedal brake pedal, allowing the driver lifted by depressing the accelerator pedal is fully released and the operation to complete the acceleration, braking and complete stop brake operation. For motorists accustomed to the traditional way of us it is hard to imagine responsible for the acceleration of the gas pedal, the brakes may also have a function.



Throughout the world of pure electric vehicles, although also like BMW i3, using technology similar to the Chevy Bolt single pedal, but the most famous, or Nissan’s overseas Leaf pure electric vehicle Leaf in the new e-pedal function; of course, the actual driving want to use this feature, you must also e-pedal opening button. According to the description of Nissan’s official website, the release of the accelerator pedal will trigger the motor to start the vehicle deceleration, when the vehicle is completely stopped, it will start automatic parking system.



Further, when the low-grip road surfaces, the brake will start the synchronization using four wheels to decelerate the vehicle safely. And, in the process of deceleration, brake lights will be turned on, too, which can be described as good news for motorists driving pure electric car is. After



have a kinetic energy recovery system, single-pedal operation principle becomes difficult to understand. Electrical signal is transmitted by the position sensor of the accelerator pedal, and then turned so that the kinetic energy recovery determination ECU calculates the deceleration mode. After completely lift the throttle, brake the vehicle is stopped and open the electronic parking feature, this is the characteristic of e-padal.

However, only have single-pedal technology in new energy models. The fundamental reason is that the new energy vehicles, needs to have a kinetic energy recovery system kinetic energy recovery vehicle sliding, driving motor inside the engine charging operation. However, the traditional fuel vehicles and no power brushless motor and battery pack, even if he just installed kinetic energy recovery system also was useless.



In Japan, there is a company called NARUSE 30 years specially developed to prevent accidental means the driver, older driver operates the accelerator error occurred. Among the traditional automotive pedal, brake and throttle are right operation, therefore NARUSE’s system the same.



principle of leverage NARUSE pedal, the “step” Wang Youce throttle action becomes “rub” the throttle, brakes and retain the action. In addition, when the right foot is on the accelerator position, as long as stepped down,An accelerator pedal connected to the lever is broken and does not interfere with the operation of the brakes. The core set of pedals, is that “step on” the accelerator and “hit” brake action is split into two types, easy to enhance muscle memory.

I often say that, in fact, a practice makes perfect driving skills. Now the reason life driving accidents due to low-level errors that could lead still exists, is composed of many, but the core of the problem is still the driver’s body.
