Seriously, the pedestrian EV problem is easily rectified by a directional front mounted buzzer/squealer/etc that is activated only while touching the brakes that does NOT sound like an obnoxious horn, but more like normal mechanical operation of an oncoming vehicle, so as not to inspire "pedestrian rage".
The technology certainly exists, just need the will and maybe the foresight?

Same ought to be the case with making the center brake light rapidly flash when making a U turn.
