Is It Correct to Use the Left Foot for Braking and the Right Foot for Acceleration? What Is the Middle One?
1 Answers
Using the left foot for braking and the right foot for acceleration is correct, and the middle one is the clutch. Below is a brief introduction to smooth braking: 1. Light braking over a long distance: In the technique of light braking over a long distance, advanced braking skills ensure that passengers do not feel any impact. The prerequisite is correctly assessing the road and traffic conditions ahead. First, release the accelerator pedal, then perform the braking operation based on distance and speed. 2. Braking on dirt roads or loose sand surfaces: Braking on dirt roads or loose sand surfaces still poses risks. This applies not only to rural roads but also to urban asphalt roads. Due to urban construction, loose soil or sand particles may accumulate on both sides of the road, so it is essential to use emergency braking cautiously. 3. Preventing 'nodding' during braking: If the braking distance is sufficient, press the brake pedal slowly and continuously to decelerate evenly. As the vehicle is about to stop, gradually release the brake pedal until it comes to a complete stop. In short, control the force of your right foot. 4. Braking techniques on curves: When approaching a curve, brake before entering, slow down to enter the curve smoothly, and then accelerate out of the curve. While braking on a curve, steer the wheel and adjust the vehicle's posture according to the curve's arc. Avoid slamming the brakes, especially for vehicles in the outer lane, to prevent loss of control.
