Should the Foot Always Be on the Brake in an Automatic Transmission?
1 Answers
In an automatic transmission, the foot should not always be on the brake. It is best for the driver to keep the foot in the middle behind the brake and accelerator pedals. Below are specific details about the driver's foot placement: 1. Right Foot: The right foot should always be placed in the middle behind the brake and accelerator pedals. This makes it easier to step on the brake in case of an emergency and also facilitates acceleration. Tilting to the right is the accelerator pedal, while stepping straight down is the brake pedal. 2. Precautions: Do not use the left foot for braking and the right foot for acceleration, as this may lead to simultaneous pressing, wasting fuel and making operation difficult. 3. Correct Movement: The standard way to press the accelerator and brake is to pivot the heel of the right foot and rotate left or right to press, keeping the heel on the ground.
