How to Control the Throttle When Starting a Car?

[NoahFitz]

Throttle control techniques are as follows: 1. When starting. For manual transmission models, first press the clutch pedal all the way down and shift into 1st gear. At this time, place your right foot lightly on the throttle pedal, then slowly lift the clutch pedal while gradually pressing down the throttle pedal. When the car body shows a tendency to move, gradually increase the speed of lifting the clutch pedal and pressing the throttle pedal to achieve a smooth and steady start. 2. When following a car. The key to throttle control lies in timely pressing and releasing the throttle according to the speed of the car in front, thereby maintaining a reasonable speed and minimizing the use of brakes. It's advisable to make appropriate use of gear coasting. In congested traffic conditions, due to the low gear, the car speed is more sensitive to the throttle. Therefore, special attention should be paid to pressing and releasing the throttle gently. When the speed drops to a certain level, you can completely release the throttle and coast in gear.
