Background: As a Fleet Risk-Control Manager in a major city, our drivers are taught to reduce their "driver reaction distance" (gas to brake time) by entering into a "preliminary pad grip," (brake pad to rotor with minor, unnoticeable contact); this is also known as "gripping pad."
Example One:
Driver: "It's not my fault I hit that truck that shot out of the mouth of that blind alley."
Fleet Safety Director: "Yea, but you should have been "gripping pad" going through there..."
Gapping it: Gapping means to 'Run' or 'Sprint' away from a certain situation or place. Typically used in and around NZ.
Also might be used to tell someone to 'fuck off' or 'go away'
"Ghee, you wanna gap down to the dairy to get some all sauces ou?." -- "Bro im fully gapping it home at lunch, fuck doing last period ghee." "Fucking gap it before I dent your head in cunt"
