Methods for beginners to drive a manual transmission car can be divided into the following 3 situations: 1. Starting off: Let the car idle for about half a minute, press the clutch, shift into first gear, simultaneously press the foot brake with the right foot, release the handbrake with the right hand, and slowly release the clutch; 2. Driving: When the speed reaches 15 to 20 km/h, shift into second gear to drive, and when the speed reaches 25 to 30 km/h, shift into third gear to drive; 3. Decelerating and stopping: Pressing the brake can reduce the vehicle speed to a safe speed, press the clutch, shift into neutral, and complete the stop. There are 2 techniques for starting a manual transmission car: 1. Flat ground start: When starting on flat ground, the vehicle will not roll back, so there is no need to use the brake-start method, simply release the clutch to the engagement point; 2. Brake-start: Brake-start involves starting the engine while pressing the foot brake or using the handbrake, and releasing the brake when the car shows signs of moving forward to complete the starting operation.
