Should the clutch be released slowly or quickly when shifting from first to second gear?

[Malcolm]

When shifting from first to second gear, the clutch should be released slowly because insufficient power can easily cause the engine to stall. Precautions for shifting gears: 1. Do not look down when shifting gears: When looking down, the left hand holding the steering wheel may unconsciously pull it downward, which can easily cause the car to deviate from its intended direction. If the speed is slightly high, this could lead to danger. 2. Coordinate the clutch properly when shifting gears: Whether using the double-clutch shifting method or the single-clutch shifting method, ensure the clutch pedal is fully depressed. 3. Control the speed before shifting: Gear shifting should be determined based on the vehicle speed. Note that when downshifting, to prevent mechanical wear, it is best to use the double-clutch method. 4. Do not skip gears when shifting: Skipping gears can cause discontinuous power delivery. Note: Proper shifting not only extends the vehicle's service life but also ensures passing the driving test smoothly.
