Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING THOMAS REAR ENGINE HDX BUS WITH 38 PASSENGERS ON 3/19/20. MY LEFT FOOT ,STEEL TOE BOOT,WAS POSITIONED IN FRONT OF AND POSSIBLY UNDER BRAKE PEDAL AS I MOVED TO BE COMFORTABLE WHILE DRIVING. I APPROACHED A STOP LIGHT USING ENGINE BRAKE TO SLOW DOWN ON A 50MPH HWY NO INJURIES WHEN I TRIED TO APPLY FOOT BRAKE I COULDN'T FIND IT. ULTIMATELY REAR ENDED A 2007 GMC YUKON PLEASE SEE RECREATED PICTURE . I'M CONCERNED THIS COULD HAPPEN TO OTHERS IN MORE SERIOUS ACCIDENT. THOMAS HAS NOW CHANGED OPERATORS COMPARTMENT BUT THERE WERE ABOUT FIVE YEARS OF THIS BRAKE PEDAL HAZARD MY VIDEO MUST BE TOO LARGE TO SEND
