Saturday at around 7 pm, a Surban driver had his left foot proped up on his dashboard! How on earth is he going to break?!
It' is very simple, with his left foot in the air, he uses his right foot for the break.
The benefit is that he takes his foot off the acellerator first. One of the worst things you can do is use your left foot to apply the break while you have your right foot on the gas pedal.
