Unless you are naturally and completely ambidextrous or you have the gift of dexterity to learn left and right activities with equal ease, then being good at one activity with your non-primary hand or foot is not going to inherently lead to you being good at other activities with that same appendage. For example, I can feather a clutch quite well, but that set of muscles I have developed precise control of over the years is different than the set of muscles I would use to left foot brake. And being that I have never practiced left foot braking, it should make sense that my attempts at left foot driving are woeful at best right now - I don't easily learn activities with my off-hand or foot, so I have to exercise those muscles specifically to have precise control of them. And of course, everyone is different. I just wanted to clarify my comment
