Is the Left Side the Brake?
1 Answers
In automatic transmission vehicles, the left pedal is the brake, and the right pedal is the accelerator. In manual transmission vehicles, the middle pedal is the brake, the right pedal is the accelerator, and the left pedal is the clutch. Below are some braking techniques: Braking while following a vehicle: Maintain a safe distance from the vehicle ahead and apply the brake pedal gently to maintain braking force, then adjust the pressure based on the speed of the vehicle in front. Braking to avoid collision: When there is sufficient braking distance, press the brake pedal slowly and steadily to decelerate evenly. As the vehicle approaches a stop, gradually release the brake pedal until it is fully released when the vehicle comes to a complete halt. Braking on curves: Follow the rule of braking before entering a curve to slow down and then accelerating out of the curve. While braking on a curve, steer the wheel and adjust the car's position according to the curve's arc.
