They don't have to be - left foot braking with an auto can be quite useful
for making a quick getaway at the lights!


You've tried that in a bus, then?

I once travelling on a (London) number 3 bus down Whitehall which
actually *was* driven in such a manner.

I mention that because I generally find bus driving standards in London
to be higher than elsewhere but this one was driven as though either
Graham Hill [1] or Mr. Sulu was at the wheel!

[1] That's showing my age, I suppose!
