What are the techniques for shifting gears in a car?
1 Answers
Shift from first gear to second gear after starting, and upshift step by step without skipping gears. Each gear shift should be completed in one motion to avoid damaging the gears, which not only harms the mechanical parts but also may cause accidents. Familiarize with the gear positions. The gear positions are usually clearly marked on the gear shift knob. When getting into an unfamiliar new car, take time to learn the different gear positions. Starting phase: Put the gear into neutral, press the clutch, turn on the ignition, engage first gear, slowly release the clutch while applying the throttle to start the car. Acceleration process: After the car starts, as the engine speed increases, shift into the appropriate gear according to the vehicle speed.
