How to Properly Release the Clutch in Driving Test Stage 3?

[OVictoria]

The correct method of operating the clutch in Driving Test Stage 3 is as follows: 1. When pressing the clutch, use your heel as the pivot point, place the ball of your left foot at the center of the clutch pedal, and move it up and down with your heel as the pivot when releasing the clutch. When lifting the clutch pedal, naturally raise your knee and slowly lift the pedal. 2. Press the clutch quickly. When shifting gears, press the clutch quickly to minimize speed loss during gear changes; otherwise, prolonged hesitation will cause a significant drop in speed. 3. Gradually increase the speed of releasing the clutch. When starting off, release the clutch slowly in low gears, especially when starting, and then slightly faster when shifting from 1st to 2nd gear, and so on. Shifting from 2nd to 3rd gear with a quick release is generally fine. In higher gears, remember that because the car is running at high speed, the clutch should be released quickly. 4. When driving, press the clutch quickly, but shift gears slowly and gently push the gear into position without excessive force, as this may lead to mis-shifting or jamming.
