What happens if the foot brake of the new Sylphy is accidentally pressed at high speed?

The new Sylphy's foot brake, if accidentally pressed at high speed, will cause a sudden drop in vehicle speed, causing passengers and unsecured items inside the car to lurch forward, and there is a possibility of rear-end collisions due to other vehicles' delayed reactions. Therefore, it is advisable to maintain a slow speed while driving to better handle unexpected situations. The new Sylphy is a family sedan under Dongfeng Nissan, which has won consumer favor with its rich configurations. The new Sylphy is equipped with a 2.0-liter MR20DE engine paired with the new-generation XTRONIC CVT continuously variable transmission, offering seamless power delivery and excellent fuel efficiency, delivering a super-technological driving experience. The CVT transmission in the new Sylphy is 50% more energy-efficient compared to conventional transmissions.
I've seen many drivers mistakenly press the parking brake pedal while driving the new Sylphy. If you suddenly step on that left-foot parking pedal at high speed, the rear wheels will lock up instantly. When the speed exceeds 80 km/h, the entire car will fishtail violently like being yanked by the tail, making the steering wheel uncontrollable. With bad luck, it may sideswipe the guardrail. The airbags will likely deploy, and passengers can be thrown around violently. A friend of mine did this last year, costing over 20,000 yuan in repairs. So always remember: the leftmost pedal is for parking only—just use your right foot for the brake and accelerator while driving.
