I drive an automatic with 2 feet.
I brake with my left foot. My first car would stall out at traffic lights and stop signs if I didn't keep my foot on the gas a little. So, to this day I still drive with 2 feet.

Share something goofy about yourself!

:hi:

1. omg! me too
I was just explaining this to a friend and she thought I was nuts. Can't drive any other way!:toast:

and something goofy: when I get into my jams and ready for bed I suddenly become aware of the weight of any jewelry. You asked!

2. I feel it has saved me accidents
Quicker to brake when the jackass wants to pull in front of you and come to a complete stop.

3. i used to drive like that too..
then I started driving a manual transmission again and fell out of the habit. Funny thing, when I race on my computer I use both feet, but I tried it again in my car, and it just didn't feel right.
