Melvin is an experienced driver He knows that the more pressure he applies to brake pedal faster his car will stop?

Melvin is mistaken; applying more pressure to the brake pedal will not hasten the stopping of his car. The effectiveness of the brakes is largely determined by the friction between the brake pads and the rotors or drums, not by the amount of pressure applied to the pedal. Instead, applying excessive pressure can cause the tires to lock up, resulting in a loss of control and longer braking distances.
