Consider adding a few more inches to use your both feet to brake (remove the gas pedal if needed).
I touched the brake just incidentally a couple of times so I don't think I need it larger for my feet/shoes.
Yes, I was surprised to see both pedals in a two-pedal vehicle were for just one foot usage. But I think the designers gave that solution a proper consideration, like how much you are aware of which foot you are using ("in an emergency", in particular)... Regarding moving the foot, it's only the gas pedal your foot is supposed to rest on by design, unless you know better. I don't think I am "obviously" the smartest and everyone else is really as dumb as they seem.
