Is the Brake on the Right or Left?
1 Answers
Left is the brake, right is the accelerator. Here are some tips for using the brake and accelerator: 1. Mnemonic: "Left brake, right accelerator". Drivers need to firmly remember that the left is the brake and the right is the accelerator, forming a solid concept in their minds. 2. Heel placement under the brake. Place your heel directly under the brake pedal so that in an emergency, you can brake promptly. 3. "Press the accelerator diagonally, press the brake straight". With your heel positioned directly under the brake pedal, pressing the brake requires a straight downward motion. Since the accelerator is to the right of the brake, moving your toes to the right while keeping your heel stationary means pressing the accelerator diagonally. 4. Rest your foot on the brake when idle. When not pressing the accelerator, keep your foot on the brake pedal to be ready for braking at any moment. If placed near the accelerator, panic may lead to accidental pressing.
