I see this once in a while. Drivers who rest their left foot on the brakes while driving. You notice that the red plastic is faded or melted from the heat. I noticed last week a car with a burned out center light while the brake light were on.

Same here, I've seen people do that for driving simulators and arcade games but never in real life.

Must be a midwest thing... just like Skyline Chili!

If you 2 feet drive a hybrid vehicle, the ECM throws a code because the battery re-gen mode doesn't know what the heck you're doing. True story

Try driving in LA on the freeway in the fast lane. Sometimes it goes bumper to bumper at 75 MPH.

Does left foot braking count? I thought it was a rally technique to brake with left? I left foot brake for fun sometimes ><

Bumper to bumper at 75mph is tailgating. Lol

And the reason why the 101/91/405/110/5 gets all backed up. Stupid drivers. Lol

I fully understand left foot braking as a technique used while racing but I feel it doesn't apply in this situation.

Oh god. Its not as bad as 405 south traffic coming off of the 710 -> 405 merge though. Jeeeez. LETS TAILGATE A TRUCK!! Lol

And yes the 55 is full of idiots. 57/5 from the 22E is nasty too. Lol

I have actually seen brake pedals stick and keep the brake lights on...but I digress.

Anyway, it wasn't even funny or stupid. It was just, meh. It's not like she was blocking traffic or accelerating sluggishly. :\
