tama na!
he's comfortable doing it, because, unlike most of us, he's had lots of practice.
leave him be.
baka lang ma-disgrasya yan pag pinilit pa.

heh heh.

[car_fan]

kasi you might break the car when you use your left foot for breaking

Haha! Baka mag SUA

Ability to adjust?

When it comes to safety remember...

There's no room for error..

[iceblueyes]

ok maybe adjust is not the word to use because that suggests it is not normal for him. But anyway

maybe I am using words too difficult to understand. Anyway, wannabe racer at bata nga naman nga daw ako.
Since inumpisahan na sige I will try use words dense old opinionated farts can understand.

Kung hinde mo kaya, kung hinde ito normal para sa inyo. Tama po, delikado po at wag niyo pong gayahin.
Pero hinde po dahil na hinde siya normal para sa inyo ay "mali" at "gunggong" na pamamaraan na ito para sa iba. Para sa inyo siguro.
Yan po ay opiniyon niyo at ginagalang ko iyon. Sana po ay igalang niyo din yun sa akin.

I have not watched the abs feature about this but did they have information about the 97 monteros involved? Like year, model, etc??

Naiintindihan mo ba kung bakit same ang orientation ng pedal ng AT trans respective to your right foot? For safety reasons! You're supposed to let go of the gas when you press the brakes.

Wait, that's the same principle for manual trans. Surprise!

Anybody from tsikot going to attend...

ATTENTION : ALL VICTIMS OF SUA. Please come to our meeting at the Congress on Saturday Nov. 28,2015 , Office of Cong. Colmenares. rm. 210 North Wing. at 10:00 AM. If you have any questions please PM or text me at 09498469005. Thank you.

Sana yung mga naniniwala na SUA yan pumunta.

Expert spokesperson or analyst. hehehe

[Monseratto]

Even those with the brake shift lock are not spared from SUA... or I guess there are certain things those "safety" features can't "overide"...hehehe

Keiyo Capioso contacted me about their SUA accident. It is a Montero 2014 model! Mitsubishi has not solved their SUA problem up to now.

On April 9, 2015 or a week ago, his Mom came home from SM Southmall and about to drive their Montero inside the garage backwards. But it suddenly accelerated. She then decided to shift to D, it again accelerated...she decided to turn it left to hit their neighbor's fence rather than hit anybody on the road. Luckily no one was hurt.

Same dealer Citimotors Alabang. same people talked to them. same analysis....driver's fault....hehe Another lover of Montero.

I am posting this to make people aware that we are not the only one who suffered this SUA problem...many in the past...hope there are no more. Property damages can be fixed but lives cannot be brought back.

I am really looking forward to the house hearing filed by Cong Rudy Farinas this May. Hope that this will open up the minds of Mitsubishi officers to fix this problem asap once and for all...go on with our lives with clean conscience.

bro, di naman siguro bigotry yan. it's not intolerance of one's belief or opinion.

people here as i understand it is talking about safety. not only safety of the driver but also to all motorists and pedestrians.

we know the reason why on AT cars or even MTs (left foot is on the clutch), yung right foot ay para sa brake at sa gas pedal. that is the right thing to do and i don't want to make the obvious apparent. that's the intention of car makers. just because yan na ang kinagisnan ng katsikot natin dito, it doesn't mean it's correct.

and why we are here? because we want to learn from people who have the same interest. no man is an island. we learn from people we interact each day (even minicarph).

now, it's not yet too late to change bad habits. as what GM said, safety is our foremost concern on the road, and it is everyone's concern.

ang mali kahit na araw-araw mong ginawa yan di yan maging tama.

Pedals are designed that way because usually the clutch and the accelerator have a compulsory inverse relationship especially on start else your car will do a minor SUA and can possible damage the internals. This is the "timpla" part the new drivers usually have a hard time with.

Brakes, not so much. If the ground was flat enough you do not need to engage then release before you could depress the accelerator. If the road was long and empty you also do not need to engage the brakes when you release the accelerator to come to a stop eventually.

AT pedals are that way so that people familiar with MT can immediately operate the vehicle. Plus the fact that they usually share the same platform and internals with MT hence some stuff have their place should be where it should be.

And again with this safety safety safety. As a famous quote would go, Do you guys even read to comprehend or just read to reply?

For me, it is normal hence those "dangers" you state do no apply to me. Those are for drivers who are used to driving MT and are UNABLE to "adjust" because of "muscle memory" "kasanayan" etc... what have you.

I HAVE NOT stated or implied that my technique was the best for everyone. I have just said that FOR ME it was most logical. If others find it so then good, if not then good also.

I agree with JM, hinde pa naman bigotry ito, its pretty minor. Just close mindedness.

All of this just because I just asked why glenn thought my technique was "gunggong". Yes, sure maybe I was aggressive with my statement but geesh. Look at you guys

bro, nabasa mo naman siguro kung pano mag react yun mga experts. Lol. Pinako sa cruz yun natutong gumamit ng kaliwang paa for braking. It's the lack of ones perspective kaya di matanggap na pwede naman palang gamitin ang kaliwang paa kung yun ang kinagisnan ng tao.

I use my right foot to brake and i wouldnt even try using my left foot to do that. The current pedal set up may have been designed for right foot braking, but if someone is comfortable with left foot braking and has done that ever since tehn i think it will be second nature for that person to use the left foot. It's that simple. No one is saying that it should be that way. Lol

Meron talagang tao na hindi nakaka intindi ata ng safety....

Safety should always comes first...

No amount of experienced nor talent should overcome safety....

Hindi purkit magaling na AKO sumingit sa kalsada eh puro singit na ang Gagawin Ko...
Hindi purkit magaling ako mag drive, eh kas kas dito kas kas dun...
Hindi purkit-- NASA subd. Ka Lang, mabagal Lang naman ang takbo mo, hindi ka na mag seatbelt...
Hindi purkit-- magaling ka matalino-- may technique, eh gagamitin mo na ang left foot mo for braking...

Magaling ba yan o mayabang?

Ganun Lang ka simple Lang yan...

Madami talagang tao-- ang magagaling at Sobrang talino--

Akala nila magaling sila--- Pero paano naging magaling ang Isang tao kung--- if they are the one's who also endanger the lives of fellow motorist...

Why not drive SAFELY?

magaling ba o mayabang ang tawag dun?

Definitely, everyone should drivr safely. Is it safe for us drivers who from the very start learned right foot driving? It's definitely unsafe. Because muscle memory dictates our left foot to stomp hard on whatever pedal it steps on.



Is it unsafe for those drivers who from the very start learned to use the left foot for braking and never drove an MT, I dont know coz i did not learn it that way. And probably, their left foot muscle memory is quite different from mine.



Now, just take away your perspective if it's kagalingan or kayabangan then maybe, just maybe, you can convince people like me who give other people the benefit of a doubt with your perspective.



Peace 😁
