How many times have you driven behind an idiot who uses the left foot on the brake pedal and right foot on the throttle at the same time? (drag racers not included)

Vehicles aren't go-karts so leave the left foot on the foot rest!

Those constant-on brake lights confuse the hell out of us normal drivers.

 

i just like my L 3rd brake light soo much i wanna share it with the world, even if i am not at a stop light!

 

Sorry p_ferlow but, let's just say my left foot is always on the foot rest.
(and that's all I have to say about that)

While we're on the subject of complaining, I want to know why the water in the urinals at public restrooms is so cold?

Doesn't anyone else notice that?

 

I REALLY hate it when people throw their cigarette butts in the urinals cause it makes'em so hard to smoke.

Good thing I don't smoke eh.

 

Raoul.....LOL.....and its deep too!!

 

hey im one and i was taught that by the ol man.(seems it suppose to cut down on the reaction time) well thirty years later and two kids on the road he was right ( theyre leftys too) only one accident between the two.(the girl was backing up in a parking lot and did 2500 damage to a big a%s caprice with a (now hear this) a geo tracker!!!! damage to the tracker? nadda told state harm i thought it was a scam but they paid. (and you wonder why the insurance is so high) only problem i have is the first 5 minutes when i borrow my buddies 4x4 w/standard shift. wooooo neeelllyyy!!!

 

I suppose it depends what you're used to.

My uncle once tried to drive our old Chrysler with an automatic (he'd always driven standard all his life <Europe>), anyhow, I remember getting chocked by the lap seatbelt in the back seat a few times when he thought the brake was the clutch.

Problem is with two foot driving is your brake foot gets lazy and most vehicles only need 1/16 of an inch brake pedal travel before the brakes engage and your brake lights come on.

If you drive a long distance with your brake lights on you can fry an egg on those lenses! I know.... my father's car had the brake switch fail and the lights stayed on....yyyyouch! I had to pull the fuse.

The reaction time theory is probably an old wive's tale, otherwise they'd be teaching that in driving school.... I guess.

 

Speaking of foot rests.
Where can I get one of those? It's sometimes called a Dead Pedal. My wife's Mustang has one but my truck doesn't.

 

Perhaps you can retrofit a Mustang foot rest?

 

Since my Ford is a standard transmission, it is completely different. BAck when I drove my automatic transmission Audi, I would use both feet. I wouldn't ride the break by any means, but my left foot did do the breaking when the time came
