He learned this practice because his left foot is "used to press a clutch." And when he learned to drive A/Ts he was taught by his dad to use his left foot. Unsure if it was mentioned in this thread though but I'm certain that he's not the only one and this could be one of the causes for SUA because, instead of your right foot letting go of the accelerator to depress the brakes, it remains in the accelerator since the left foot does the braking and since the Montero Sport's pedals are so close to each other, it's certain that you could mistake one for the other.

Wrong way around. If you're used to braking with your left foot, you won't brake with your right. Driver error SUA typically happens because you use the exact same foot to accelerate and brake.

And if you try to brake with both feet, you will feel right away that they're not on the same pedal. This is why, when we teach emergency braking, we teach people to use both feet to stomp on the brakes.

This is why you don't get SUA claims on motorcycles. Braking and acceleration are two completely different motions... but you do get a lot of noobs falling off of bikes because they're thrown backwards while twisting the throttle...

Ang pinagtataka ko lang talaga e bakit ngayon araw araw na may SUA. At kung saan merong SUA, andoon ang media always ready to report. 97 cases in span of 5 years (2010-2015) in average 2 cases per month. Pero this past week araw araw na bigla. Can someone explain this to me?

Dati kasi considered Yan as ordinary traffic accident, they don't believe the drivers pag sinabi na nag SUA yung sasakyan... Eh ngayon alam na Lahat na may SUA na nangyayari sa montero.. Kaya its no ordinary news anymore.. It's a big issue especially sa motoring public..

Pag montero ang na accident., SUA agad ang isa sa mga reason. Hehe. Baka dumating sa point na lahat ng AT ni mitsu e pag na accident e SUA din ang reason.
