As a person who drives alot...everyday...numerous times,I'm trying to grasp how anyone could get the gas and brakes confused. Seriously. How the fuck do you drive, then? Are they those people that drive with 2 feet? 1 on gas 1 on brake? I hear about this happening alot and it's the same thing: person hit gas instead of brakes. How the fuck do you do that? 1) Make sure gears are set BEFORE you move 2) if you're able to confuse the two, you maybe shouldnt be behind the wheel. As I get older and I witness more amd more stupidity on the roads, as inconvenient it would be to me even, I think you should get road tests every 2 years or so. Too many people out there that have completely lost their minds are driving heavy dangerous "weapons" out there putting the rest of us in danger because they are too incompetent to know which pedal is which. People could have been killed or seriously injured because people cant slow down and pay attention to what they are doing. My brain goes from ?????? to pissed off the more I think about it./ rant over. sorry. ;)
I don't get it either. Even if you do have a brain fart and press the wrong pedal or something, you shouldn't be hitting it so hard that you can't correct it before hitting something. People just like to zoom around too damn much - not surprising that the car in the pic is a sports car.
people haven't forgotten how to drive, they don't give a shit. they drink or use their phone or speed allllll the time and nothing happens! everyone else is an asshole! people already behave on their tests, then go back to being awful.
if we want the man to spend money (driving tests cost more than that fee we pay), it should be on safer roads, better public transit, etc.
I've made a lot of stupid mistakes from stupid muscle memory, so I can see it happening, theoretically. I've never done it, but I can see how it could happen. If I can pick up the vacuum cleaner when I need the mop and then go "...wait...." I guess I can see hitting the brake.
Of course, household chores do not 1) require being licensed and 2) don't put me in control of a multiton death machine, so maybe I just don't use as much thought as I do driving.
