When taking the curve driving test in Subject 2, you need to partially depress the clutch to control the vehicle speed. Curve Driving: Curve driving is an assessment point in Subject 2 of the driver's test, commonly known as the S-curve. The test requires the vehicle to drive on an S-shaped road surface of specified width without pressing the edge lines, with smooth steering. It assesses the driver's ability to maneuver the steering and control the vehicle while driving on curves. Clutch: The clutch consists of friction plates, spring plates, pressure plates, and a power output shaft. Located between the engine and the transmission, it transmits the torque stored on the engine flywheel to the transmission to ensure the vehicle delivers appropriate driving force and torque to the drive wheels under different driving conditions. It falls under the category of the powertrain.
