brakeoverride
Brakeoverride, also known as brake-throttle override (BTO) or brake-override system (BOS), is an automotive safety feature designed to ensure that a vehicle decelerates when the brake pedal and accelerator pedal are pressed simultaneously. The primary purpose is to mitigate the risk of unintended acceleration by giving priority to braking.
The system works by continuously monitoring sensor signals from both pedals and the vehicle’s drive system.
Implementation of brakeoverride varies. In throttle-by-wire vehicles, the override is achieved through the engine management and
History and adoption of brakeoverride grew after high-profile cases of unintended acceleration, leading many manufacturers to
Limitations and considerations include reliance on sensor integrity and proper function of the braking system. Brakeoverride
