A foot-brake-device (FBD) for vehicles, utility/commercial vehicles, includes a foot-brake-pedal (FBP) for driver activation, and a first/second foot-brake-sensor (FBS) coupled with the FBP, the first/second FBS determining an FBP position upon driver activation, and the first/second FBS generating a first/second electric-control-signal (ECS) corresponding to the FBP position. The second FBS functions as a back-up-sensor for failure of the first FBS. The FBD includes member(s) to generate counter-force(s) against which the FBP works upon activation, the counter-force being substantially proportional to the activation degree of the FBP and indicates the activation degree of the FBP to the driver. The members include first/second spring-elements with different characteristics. The FBD includes first/second electronic-control-device, the first/second ECS generated by the first/second FBS being received by the first/second electronic-control-device which generates a third/fourth ECS which activates brake actuator(s) to brake the vehicle in an amount corresponding to the activation degree of the FBP.
