Why is every driver taught to use their right foot for
pressing the accelerator and the brake pedals, but
their left foot only for the clutch pedal?
[1] It would be very confusing to use both feet for all
three pedals.
[2] The clutch is an extra sensitive pedal and so
requires the careful control of the left foot.
[3] The car should not be accelerated and braked at
the same time, hence the two-feet procedure.

Why is it not recommended that you allow the fuel to
run very low or reach an empty fuel tank?

untold damage and cause it to seize up.
[2] The sediment at the bottom of the tank could
cause blockages and extra wear and tear.
[3] You will need to carry extra fuel in containers
and this is an undue fire and safety hazard.

After adjusting the seat, why is it important to make

become imbalanced and unstable.

[3] Because if it moves back, you may lose grip of the
car controls and control of the car.
