Struggled with this for a second, then I figured it out...

The brake light coming ON isn't the important part, like the rear brake lights... it's the brake lights turning OFF that's important in the front.

So maybe, now hear me out, MAYBE we need to invert that. Have front brake lights that are on ALL the time, and pressing the brake turns them off to indicate safety?

It would also help to know whether or not I'm going to get smushed.

I'm salty because nobody took my front-blinker serious ๐Ÿ˜ค but we should embrace front brakes?! ๐Ÿ˜”

Whatever makes things more safe ๐ŸŒž!
