I will occasionally use the left foot to brake while applying throttle with the right foot when I need control at low speeds on a truck with an automatic transmission. In this method, the throttle application is constant and the approach to the "target" is controlled with the brake. Left foot braking is also usefull for a full out high stall launch on an auto from a dead start on a car without all those electric cutoff gizmos.
