I seem to trip the "Zwangsbremsung" 250m out from a red signal every single time in MSB, even though I'm going way less than 25 kph. I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong or if this is a known bug, because this issue does not occur as often or at all in the other German DLCs.
It might depend on what you did before... After you pressed the indusi button to acknowledge the first double yellow signal ( the aspect before the red signal ) and slowed down... did you try to also use the Indusi Frei ( free from the blinking 85 light ) before you reached the magnet before the red signal? Because if you do this, you'll get an emergency application.
Oh man, that is exactly what my problem was, I did press the release button before the magnet. Guess it was me all along...thank you for clarifying!!
