why dont car have a backwards pedal?

>>105873730 (OP)
Don't manual cars have reverse pedals?

>>105873738
no retard, they have the friction pedal.

>>105873730 (OP)
Why would they when they don't even have a forwards pedal. They just have a stop & go pedal; though some vehicles have a third pedal to change the force and direction the wheels spin.

Also, >>>/o/

>>105873738
just put in reverse, bro

>>105873754
so that you can easily manouver tight parking spots or other situations without having to shift gears 400 times?

>>105873730 (OP)
They do. It's the same as the forward pedal.

>>105873730 (OP)
what would happen if you pressed the backwards pedal at 70mph on the highway?

>>105873867
it would brake

>>105873867
Probably something exciting and noteworthy.

>>105873730 (OP)
Would only work on electric vehicles anyway.

american spotted

It's fly-by-wire so the computer just ignores it and goes *ding* at you

>>105873867
the wheels would just start spinning backwards, so you just slow down until you stop until you go backwards. common sense. they should do this

>>105873730 (OP)
because they have backwards engines instead

I have no problem with that and I only drive manuals since 2007. Learn how to drive properly kiddo. Shifting manual is fun.

>>105873867
You would instantly start going backwards at 70mph if it was designed intelligently
