Steptronic Supercharged October 16, 2018 Share October 16, 2018 I can do both. On tracks, using both legs very helpful. Normal driving one leg only. You want to practice with both legs, go for those simulators, you will get used to it. ↡ Advertisement 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kb27 Supersonic October 16, 2018 Share October 16, 2018 i always thought left foot is for the clutch only, where last time we have cars with clutch and manual gears. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Macrosszero Turbocharged October 16, 2018 Share October 16, 2018 I did tried stepping brake with my left. I almost jerk till throw out. Than I concluded my left foot left sensitive than my right foot. Must be some sort of illness. It is just muscle memory and training. Just like how few people can write properly with both hands. The right foot is primarily used to modulate the throttle in small increments, or brake smoothly. We rarely panic brake as a matter of daily driving. I personally feel that some accidents can be avoided if drivers simply brake harder but that's another story. If you are used to driving stick your left leg is conditioned to press down hard and gently release as you locate the clutch biting point thus muscle memory carries over if you attempt to brake with your left foot the first few times. You really have to concentrate when you are left-foot braking. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optramagnum 6th Gear October 16, 2018 Share October 16, 2018 Any method which don't cause accident or damage to car is a good method... I know.. Say like never say like that. :) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
awhtc 6th Gear October 16, 2018 Share October 16, 2018 (edited) The correct method to brake in the event of accident in front is to brake hard initially then gradually release the brake if there is still reaction distance. This will achieve a shorter braking distance, enable you to keep the brake fully depressed if needed and allow the car behind you to react.

This will achieve a shorter braking distance, enable you to keep the brake fully depressed if needed and allow the car behind you to react. Just fully depress as hard as possible while switching on hazard light for 5 sec ABS will improve braking distance and enable steering input. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

flashbang Turbocharged October 18, 2018 Author Share October 18, 2018 (edited) Left foot on brake puts your legs in an unnatural position, not comfortable for day to day driving. Not to mention bad habit of resting foot on brake pedal. Seen quite a few cars driving around on highways and brake light is always on.....

Not to mention bad habit of resting foot on brake pedal. Seen quite a few cars driving around on highways and brake light is always on..... Brake light always on, might be due to brake switch fault. Even when they stop and turn off the engine, the brake light will still be on. Then the battery will go flat the next morning. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
