Overview:
Electric Vehicles are a key part of our tomorrow and how we get there. If we can get all the fossil fuel vehicles off our roads, out of our seas and out of our skies, we'll have a much better environment. This community is where we discuss the various different vehicles and news stories regarding electric transportation.

The reason for the gas/brake being next to eachother is due to the historical need to work the clutch pedal at the same time as the gas/brake in manual transmissions. However most modern EVs (including tesla model 3s) have single-pedal driving (press to go, release to slow), so the standard is indeed changing!
Not a word, my dude.
Whocares?
Edit: No, hang on - Sincerely, why do you care? People make typos all the time and this isn't reddit circa 2012, a person's worth is no longer evaluated entirely on their passing a proofread.
Not op but I care. I'd like to make as few grammatical mistakes as possible, so I welcome any correction or tip.
Sure, and that's a completely reasonable position for you! But the question is more "who cares enough about someone else's typos to point them out in a pretty rude and completely unsolicited way" than it is "who cares about grammar errors". You welcoming correction is genuinely great - them acting like a reddit grammar nazi isn't.
Yeah but if people like OP don't correct me, how would I receive corrections?
Again, the question is more about them than it is about you.
But to answer your question: by asking for them, or marking it in your profile or similar. For example, I now have you tagged as "grammar check me, daddy" so if I see it in the future I'll know you're down. But the fact that one person may appreciate them doing it does not mean they have an excuse to be rude (and obnoxiously anglocentric on an international forum) to everyone, just on the offchance they'll like it.
