Braking by Hand
I believe that most physiology books point out that humans have a quicker
hand reaction time vs foot reaction time. If so, then why don't we build
modern cars with motorcycle type brake actuation or indeed take up Mr
Setright's suggestion of a side mounted control column (joystick) which
could be used for steering and braking?

Re confusion, if we were brought up on the above system, we no doubt would
wonder how we coped with anything other than what we had come to learn and
use instinctively!
