Description of the problem | The accelerator pedal and brake pedal are separated by 1-1/4 inches. At rest, the brake pedal is about 1/2 inch higher than the accelerator pedal. When depressed, the brake pedal is 1 inch lower. It is very easy to move your right foot from the accelerator to depress the brakes and not be far enough over to avoid also depressing the accelerator at the same time. There is 4 inches of space between the accelerator pedal and side of the car body on the right side. This is plenty of room to relocate the accelerator pedal to the right, perhaps so that there is the width of a man's shoe sole between the two pedals. |
