Why bother? What's wrong with just stepping on the brake pedal?

That is indeed how most people drive. Apart from dazzling those
behind you with your brake lights (at night) and running the risk of
your foot slipping off the brake pedal, you may be inadvertently
causing your brake discs (rotors) to warp.

Stepping on the foot brake pedal is indeed how most *normal* people
drive. The smaller rear brake assemblies are not engineered to
withstand that type of abuse! Need I mention you run the risk of
being rear ended, or fishtailing out of control had you unfortunately
pulled the brake just a little *too* high?
