Is the left side of an automatic car the brake or the accelerator?
1 Answers
In an automatic car, the left pedal is the brake and the right pedal is the accelerator, both located at the driver's feet and typically controlled with one foot. Here are some driving tips for automatic cars: 1. Although driving an automatic car is relatively simple, it's important to pay attention to driving techniques, especially the use of the accelerator and brake pedals. The car determines the driver's speed control based on the pressure applied to the pedals. 2. During normal driving of an automatic car, when not accelerating, the right foot can be placed on the left brake pedal. This practice is called "preparing the brake" and helps save reaction time in emergencies requiring deceleration. The right accelerator pedal should only be pressed when acceleration is needed.
