How tf do you even get a water bottle under the brake pedal?

    It can be done. I drove Uber part time and a group of girls in the back decided why not drunk water bottle fight. One rolled under as I was going downhill. That is up there with one of the most terrifying moments of my life.

    I used the emergency brake and stomped the foot brake as hard as i could multiple times until it was crushed then fished it out.

    I no longer drive Uber part time.

  • pedals have this thing where they have space behind them, and if you have no concern whatsoever for safety and yours, and others lives, then you can just slap a water bottle on the floorpan in front of you, and when you brake, that water bottle can roll forward and get caught under the pedal. Leading to restricted braking ability.
