Release the Handbrake First or Shift Gears First?
1 Answers
When driving, it is acceptable to either shift gears first or release the handbrake first. Below is an introduction to the relevant content: No damage to the car: Whether you shift gears first or release the handbrake first, there will be no damage to the car. If starting on a slope, it is recommended to shift gears first and then release the handbrake to prevent the car from rolling backward. Manual transmission cars: When driving a manual transmission car, starting requires the use of the half-clutch technique. If the half-clutch technique is not used when starting a manual transmission car, it will cause the engine to stall. The half-clutch technique can gradually reduce the speed difference between the engine flywheel and the clutch plate. If the clutch is fully engaged at once when starting, it will cause the engine to stall.
