I'm a two foot driver. One on the gas, one on the brake. I have better reaction time that way. .

My dad tends to drive with 2 feet, drives me up the wall! I'll make a comment on how he is riding the gas and brake and he'll get all defensive, lol.
So, yeah, 1 foot for me...

I have to agree with the majority. One footed is the way to go because you will move your foot over to the brake by instinct if you feel like you're going to crash. So it doesn't matter, I don't like it when people use two feet because they forget that their foot is resting on the brake pedal and the lights are on (taillights) and the brakes are braking. That will fry the brakes and make it worse to stop.
So one foot unless racing. (legally of course)

I drive with one foot. When I drive stick it is both then. Driving stick shift gets me into too much trouble. I feel like Mario Andretti and fly through those gears. Vroom!!!
