Is it necessary to pause when shifting gears?

[AliceAnn]

There is no need to pause in neutral when shifting gears. Precautions for shifting gears: When shifting gears, keep the steering wheel steady. During gear shifting, one hand controls the steering wheel while the other operates the gear lever. Since only one hand is used, it's less stable than using both hands, so it's important to maintain steady control. Avoid violently shaking the gear lever back and forth. Simply depress the clutch and move the gear lever to the appropriate position—there's no need to shake it unnecessarily. Coordinate the clutch properly when shifting gears: Whether using the double-clutch shifting method or the single-clutch shifting method, it's essential to fully depress the clutch pedal when engaging it. After completing the gear shift, before fully releasing the clutch, gently press the accelerator, then slowly release the clutch, maintaining a semi-engaged state until the vehicle speed stabilizes before completely releasing the clutch.
