How come when you hit your brakes on your 91 explorer 2wd with rear abs the peddle went to the floor and the truck kinda sped up?
If your brake peddle goes to the floor, you have lost brake fluid from your master cylinder in the engine compartment. Check your rubber brake hoses at each of your wheels, look for any signs of leaking brake fluid at your wheels, connections,lines, and master cylinder.
Why is the brake peddle still soft after bleeding the system 2001 Maxima?
soft peddle feel maybe from a damaged brake master cylinder. this pressurizes the peddle, and if there is a leak in the cylinder it might feel soft or flop all the way to the floor.

Why won't my brake lites work on a 2000 sunfire?

How does a clutch break work?
If a truck has a clutch brake it would only be used when coming to a complete stop. By pushing the clutch peddle completely to the floor you would apply the clutch brake. This stops the clutch disc from spinning making it easier to shift into 1st or reverse gear. Normal shifting while driving you would not need to or want to push the clutch peddle to the floor to activate the clutch brake.
How do you know which fuse goes to your brake light there is no fuse diagram?
Remove and replace the fuses one at a time whilst pressing the brake peddle until the lights go out.

Your brake light switch is out of adjustment. Don't know what vehicle you have but most brake light switches are located on the brake peddle lever just above the brake peddle pad.
Why is your brake peddle soft?
Brake pads could be worn or lack of fluid in brake funnel
