On the track I left foot brake because it helps me pitch or catch the car immediately, so it improves my reaction time too. I'm using it for car balance not panic braking.
Another PCA exercise is accident avoidance, where drivers practice turning to avoid an accident instead of just threshold braking in a straight line.
Not a deer but perhaps still relevant the moose test.

This test does not use any brakes and assumes the driver must react immediately and has time to only turn to avoid the moose.
Helpful book for studying driving techniques.
