Almost everyone who drives an automatic
will leave it in D at traffic lights, and sit with their foot on the brake.

If you're in the USA, almost everyone drives an auto. I find the brake light thing a bit annoying there because of that.

I notice that an increasing number of cars in London are automatic (presumably because they're less of an effort to drive in stop-start traffic), so it's becoming an issue there too.

Teh great thing is
you dont even have to leave your foot on the brake as a sharp "tap" sticks it on "hold" leaving your brake light shining. I have now written to Mercedes to ask if they will consider a method of turning the brake lights off for the "hold" function and treating it as if you were using the handbrake (which is a bit of an arse if you drive an automatic).
