Default LJK Setright

When I first started driving automatics I had to keep my left foot
well clear of the pedals to avoid putting both feet on the brake
pedal to stop.
I believe that some modern cars not only have ABS but also Emergency
Brake Assist, which realises you're anxious to stop quickly and
increases pedal pressure to emergency to stop levels. This is because
experiments have been to show that we don't brake hard enough or fast
enough in emergencies.
