What are the gear positions in a car?
1 Answers
Manual transmission gear positions: 1st gear: typically used at speeds around 10 km/h; 2nd gear: typically used at speeds around 20 km/h; 3rd gear: used when driving between 20-40 km/h; 4th gear: used when driving between 40-60 km/h; 5th gear: can be used when driving above 60 km/h. The following are the requirements related to gear shifting: 1. Beginners should master the timing of gear shifting as soon as possible: There are techniques in hand gestures when shifting gears. When shifting, keep the five fingers together, hold the gear knob loosely with the palm, and use the forearm to guide the hand in shifting. Pay attention to applying gentle and slow force when shifting, avoiding excessive force to prevent shifting into the wrong gear. Always pause in neutral when shifting, and if the wrong gear is engaged, don't panic, just return to the original gear and shift again. 2. Tips for beginners learning to shift gears: Always start in 1st gear, do not start in 2nd gear; shift gears sequentially, do not skip gears; depress the clutch fully and only shift when the speed is appropriate; keep eyes on the road ahead, do not look at the gear stick.
