You required a lesson to become aware of this?
I would not feel in control of the vehicle otherwise.
I couldn't operate the clutch correctly for a start, as both my legs are roughly the same length.
complete brake failure, I'm a lucky boy

Perhaps the OP suffers from SMS?
Automatic cars don't have clutch pedals.
Please explain why it would have been relevant?

I also couldn't floor the accelerator.
Or use the full travel of the brake pedal if there was a problem with the brakes for example.
Like I said - not in full control of the vehicle.
If you'd said you had fluid dripping from around your tank area we would have suggested a pipe had failed.
Looking at the OP's replies, that must be the case. Short Man Syndrome.
Or BES.
First word - Bell
You cannot boil brake fluid (in a brake system), but you can boil the water that the brake fluid absorbs over time, when this boils it creates steam which compresses easily so the pedal hits the floor, once the system cools down the steam turns back to water and the brakes work again.
That's the theory but each time (after the first time) it happened on my bike, it was only days after I had completely flushed and bled the system with quality brake fluid from a new, sealed bottle. If it gets hot enough, it'll boil!
