Do You Need to Press the Brake When Shifting Gears in a Manual Transmission Car?

Shifting gears in a manual transmission car does not require pressing the brake. When shifting gears, you must first press the clutch pedal all the way down, and the operation of the gear lever should be light, quick, gentle, and precise. The starting steps for such a car are: 1. Insert the key and turn it to the 'on' position; 2. Place the gear lever in the neutral position; 3. Press the clutch all the way down and turn the key to the 'start' position. Manual transmission cars are equipped with a manual gearbox, which works by switching different gear sets to achieve gear ratio changes. The manual gearbox consists of a power input shaft, an output shaft, and gears. The power input shaft is connected to the clutch, and the power transmitted from the clutch is directly passed to the gear set through the input shaft. Different gear ratios result in different power transmission effects, and shifting gears while driving refers to changing the gear ratio.
