Should the heel be lifted when switching from the accelerator to the brake?

When switching from the accelerator to the brake, the foot should be lifted; otherwise, the operation cannot be performed. When braking is needed, the right foot should naturally leave the accelerator pedal and move to the brake pedal. Additionally, the brake pedal is positioned higher than the accelerator pedal. The correct driving method for wading through water with a car: 1. Slow down or stop to observe: If the water level exceeds two-thirds of the bumper or tire height while driving through water, there is a certain risk. Moreover, driving too fast through water can cause splashes to enter the cabin through the engine compartment or chassis. The water level should be assessed; if it is high, it is advisable to detour rather than force passage. 2. Do not stop or shift gears: When wading through water, drive at a steady speed with low gear and moderate to high throttle, maintaining low speed. Avoid stopping, shifting gears, or releasing the throttle. 3. Do not restart the engine: If the car stalls in water, take measures to tow it to a safe location with less water as soon as possible. Do not attempt to restart the engine to avoid damage. 4. Remove moisture from the brake pads promptly: This prevents the vehicle from losing braking ability after wading, which could lead to danger or accidents.
