You can drive in third gear for a long time. Here are the relevant details: 1. Carbon buildup: Driving at low speeds for extended periods can lead to carbon buildup in the engine, affecting vehicle performance and fuel consumption. It is recommended to occasionally drive at high speeds. 2. First gear: First gear is the starting gear, suitable for speeds ranging from 0-15 km/h when the vehicle is stationary. 3. Second gear: Shift to second gear when the RPM reaches between 1600 and 2200. The speed range for second gear is 20-30 km/h. 4. Third gear: Shift to third gear when the car is around 2200 RPM.
