Just lift your foot off the brake, let the engine start and press the gas and go. No sense in being in a mad rush just to get to the next stupid red light..
haha i know, right? the lights are always red........ and yeah i guess with time i'll just eventually get used to either turning it off the moment i sit in the car, or actually using this feature.

It must be that you live in an area with very little traffic. I don’t need “lag” when I’m trying to merge it is disconcerting. I just start my car and use the off button as my normal start procedure.

I’m in the Denver metropolis, I’d say it’s the opposite of very little traffic. lol. I got used to the auto off/on Living in Stuttgart, Germany the last several years. That place has insane traffic but at least everyone follows the rules.
