1 pedal driving doesn't use brake pads to slow down your car. You still have brakes in case of an emergency, but if you're using them enough to wear out your brake pads then you're doing something wrong. As someone else pointed out, you're much more likely to rust off your brake pads rather than wear them out.
The amount of braking force that you can apply with that is relatively small, so if you want to either brake quickly or come to a complete stop, you'll still use the actual brakes. While your brake pads would last longer than typical car, they would still need wear down.
