While stopping the vehicle sometimes the brake distance is extended as the car is slow to stop. On a regular bases the vehicle brake pedal sticks to the floor while stopped at a light, I then have to pull the pedal up with my left foot to begin acceleration. When approaching slower traffic as the traffic resumes at regular speeds the brake pedal sticks and continues stopping the car.
