If brake pressure doesn't change reaction time than why do we care if we leave at the same brake pressure???

Thanks for all the insights

Good stuff.

Hi Joe,
Brake pressure consistency comes into play when using a brake pressure activated two step. I believe when foot braking, once you put the gas to the floor no matter what the car is going to move, at that point any brake pressure will be over come.
