I was going to mention in my post that it's mostly automatic cars who are the worst offenders, but I didn't want to be ostriched sized by the majority of the forum :-[

I have an auto mate, i always take it out of gear when at lights, soon as amber appears then she goes in gear.

Only needs the foot to slip off the brake when behind someone and the car will go forward.

Made worse by the safety police's requirement for a eye/high level brake light. I have to say though it doesn't bother me. I have to admit being guilty of sitting with my foot on the brake in both cars, one's an auto, t'other's a manual.
