The emergency stop light is not a system that can
prevent a possible rear-end collision caused by your
hard braking. It flashes the hazard warning lights at
the time you are braking hard. It is always
recommended to avoid hard braking unless it is
absolutely necessary.
The emergency stop light system does not activate
with the hazard warning button pressed in.
If the ABS stops working for a certain period of time
during braking, the emergency stop light system may
not activate at all.
