How to Brake with Handbrake and Gear Engagement?

[ODerek]

The sequence for starting a car is to engage first gear, release the handbrake, slightly press the accelerator, and slowly lift the clutch. The sequence for stopping a car is to press the brake to bring the vehicle to a halt, shift to neutral, engage the handbrake, and turn off the engine before exiting. For automatic transmission vehicles, when parking, first shift into P (Park) mode, then firmly engage the handbrake. With automatic transmission models, it is acceptable to either engage the handbrake first or shift into P mode first when parking. For manual transmission models when parking, you can also press the clutch pedal first, then firmly engage the handbrake before shifting into neutral. The starting sequence is the same for both automatic and manual transmissions: first shift into gear, then release the handbrake. Once the gear is engaged, the power transmission path of the gearbox is connected. When first shifting into gear, the transmission is in first gear, where the torque is the highest. If the brake is not properly applied, the car may suddenly lurch forward. Below are some braking techniques for manual transmission cars: Braking in curves: Always brake before entering a curve to reduce speed, then accelerate when exiting the curve. If you need to brake while in a curve, adjust the braking force according to the vehicle's arc to avoid skidding or drifting. Smooth braking: Brake in advance by pressing the pedal slowly. As the vehicle comes to a stop, gradually release the brake until the vehicle halts completely, then release the brake entirely.
