THE BRAKE PEDAL IS SEVERELY CLOSER THAN THE ACCELERATOR FROM THE DRIVER. WHEN TRYING TO STOP QUICKLY, THE DRIVER HAS TO LIFT FOOT SUBSTANTIALLY TO SHIFT OVER TO APPLY PRESSURE TO THE BRAKE. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AND TERRIBLY UNCOMFORTABLE. THE FOOT PEDALS, EVEN WITH THE ADJUSTMENTS, ARE TOO CLOSE TO THE DRIVER.
