Should You Release the Foot Brake First When Starting on a Slope?
1 Answers
When starting on a slope, you should not release the foot brake first. The correct operation for starting on a slope is as follows: First, slowly release the clutch until the engine starts to vibrate, then release the brake pedal, and immediately press the accelerator to follow up. Here are the methods for coordinating the clutch and brake: 1. Automatic transmission cars do not have a clutch pedal, so you can directly press the brake. 2. When driving at high speed or normal speed, you do not need to press the clutch to slow down. 3. When taking a curve, first press the brake to slow down. If there are no obstacles after the curve, you do not need to press the clutch; release the brake and press the accelerator to speed up. If there is an obstacle right after the curve, press the clutch and shift to a lower gear. 4. When going down a long or steep slope, do not press the clutch; use the engine's traction for braking. 5. When parking, first press the brake to reduce the speed, then press the clutch.
