heavy right foot

Sergeant admitted the crash had been caused by "a heavy right foot".

The truth is, however, that it takes far more than a heavy right foot to succeed in any form of motorsports.

Apparently, speeds up to 85 m.p.h. are possible on electric alone, but it wasn’t something I and my heavy right foot experienced.

Starting with a full battery and a heavy right foot, I saw about 30 miles per gallon on my 75-mile mixed-driving loop.

The sedan is E.P.A.-rated at 20 city and 28 highway; my heavy right foot wrung 22 miles-per-gallon out of it.
