My 1995 Mazda Protege has the gas and brake petals so close in height and little separation that it is very easy to apply the brake and still be applying the gas. I have not had an accident yet but have had some very near misses.

On four occasion while backing out of garage vehicle suddenly accelerated while applying brake. Believed this happened because both pedals are set too close together. Dealer notified.
