This bothers me more than it should.
It should be called the decoupler pedal because that’s what it actually does.
Decouple deez nuts!
Wait, noooooooo!
Snip
The brake pedal also accelerates
If we’re talking physics here, technically the steering wheel accelerates, too.
Now look up when an electronic circuit is “open” and when it is “closed”; conventional current flow vs actual electron flow; negative voltage.
(These are not that confusing, just unexpected for someone new)
Accelerator isn’t accurate because it still works, but won’t accelerate in neutral.
The brakes cause acceleration, too.
Relevant:
Take your pick lol

Love it, thanks.
It still accelerates the engine.
Respect. You’re right. It should be called gas/fuel/energy pedal because you always get more of it when you press it while actual acceleration has more dependencies.
In most gasoline vehicles it’s the throttle pedal. Pressing it reduces how much you’re throttling the engines air supply
What if we compromise and name it the clutch decoupler pedal, and then everybody calls it the clutch for short?
Well it would be pretty uncomfortable to always press it to drive.
Clutch deez nuts.
(Please)
Wait until you hear people say “depress the clutch to engage the clutch pedal”
I think its logical, thats why it isnt called the clutcher. It just controls the clutch mechanism so clutch pedal is a completely valid name.
It’s gas, breaks, clutch. They control the gas, the brakes and the clutch.
“Breaks”
I like how autoincorrect fucked you the first time, but got it right the second time. Haja
Haha yes autocomplete, that’s what did it 😅
“Foot feat, break, clutch” - My mother in law
Now this cancer lives in you. 😈
I don’t get it.
She doesn’t call it an accelerator or gas pedal. She calls it a foot feet. No typo.
And I understand, I hear it come out of her mouth in person and I still don’t get it.
i never got the hang of a clutch. clutchless manual was fine.
