Should You Press the Clutch During Intermittent Braking in Subject 3?
1 Answers
No, it's not necessary. You only need to lightly press the brake pedal, and generally, there's no need to press the clutch. For example, when passing through intersections or when the speed is slightly high, intermittent braking is sufficient. First, approach it without any psychological pressure and maintain a calm mindset. It's recommended to familiarize yourself with the road by taking a test drive before the exam. Being able to drive doesn't guarantee passing the road test, so knowing the road conditions and necessary precautions is always better than not knowing. Below is relevant information: Intermittent braking: First, press the brake slightly. When you feel the car decelerating noticeably, release the brake (but not completely). When you feel the car is about to lose braking control, press the brake again. Repeat this cycle. The intermittent braking technique is used to avoid locking the wheels by not pressing the brake too hard, which could prevent steering.
