Someone else said: I dont know what the big deal is. There are several models on the streets that have a full rear body length light at the back. The only difference is that on Tesla it changes into the short stripe while the others have separate breaking lights.

Another added: Just learn to drive, your not suppose to be looking to see if someones tail lights light up, you go by your vision and the speed of the vehicle, the lights just help if that makes any sense...
