When LKAS slows you down, do the brake lights come on?

[6500in6th]

Just did a tour from Indiana to Virginia over the Alleghany in my new Hatch and used LKAS (my grandson says it stands for 'lickety split') a lot. I even tried letting it come to a complete halt. I wondered, though, when do the brake lights come on?

if it is hard braking then yes it should. If it’s just from engine braking, then no. I cant say for certain, because I dont have Honda sensing.

LKAS keeps you in the lane with steering input. It's RDM that slows/stops your vehicle in the event you cross a solid line. And, yes, if RDM is activated the brake lights will come on, just like when ACC stops your car.

Anytime the brakes are applied the brake lights come on, regardless of who/what applies the brakes.

No the right blinker goes on...

Does the left blinker turn on in left side driving countries?

How's this even a question? You can literally just watch your third brake light to see if it comes in or not.

From the driver's seat?

maybe it’s harder to see on the hatch

Guess you didn't buy the rear view mirror package.

At night you can see it on any car I've ever driven.

Thanks, Phy, for your help. I'm new to all this modern tech and just trying to learn. I also learned that I did the wrong alphabet soup - I should have said ACC not LKAS.
