Steps to Learn How to Drive?

[LeahFitz]

The correct steps for starting a car can be briefly summarized as "preparation before getting in, adjusting the seat, starting the engine, shifting gears, observing road conditions, and starting." The key is to master the semi-engaged position of the clutch. Once you find the semi-engaged position, starting becomes very easy. With current car models, as long as you slightly lift the clutch to the semi-engaged position, the car can start even on flat roads without pressing the accelerator. Therefore, you can use this method to practice more on flat roads and find the engagement point. First lightly press the accelerator, then lift the clutch. This starting method is quite similar—first lightly press the accelerator to maintain the RPM between 800 and 1000, then slowly lift the clutch to start. This method can effectively prevent stalling due to insufficient starting power. For beginners, besides driving slowly, it’s important to maintain a calm mindset. Remember not to panic, as panicking often leads to mistakenly pressing the accelerator instead of the brake.
