I still say he's a left foot braker. I'll bet the pad is wore clean off the
left side of his brake pedal. As a career ASE mechanic, i've seen PLENTY of
brake pedal pads worn off on the left side and they'll stand there and look
you in the face and tell you they don't use their left foot on the brake.
And i can assure you, if they're using the left foot on the brake, THEN
they're also riding the brake.

Sorry. It's my right foot.
