What is the correct sequence for parking a car?
1 Answers
When parking, the essential steps for automatic and manual transmission vehicles are as follows: 1. Automatic transmission: The correct method is to first turn on the right turn signal to alert vehicles behind; gently press the brake pedal to bring the car to a gradual stop, shift to N (neutral), engage the handbrake, shift to P (park), and then turn off the engine before exiting the vehicle. 2. Manual transmission: The correct method is to first turn on the right turn signal to alert vehicles behind; release the accelerator and gently press the brake pedal. When the speed drops to around 30km/h, press the clutch; continue to slow down using the foot brake; after stopping, engage the handbrake and shift to neutral; release the foot brake and slowly release the clutch. If the car tends to lurch forward, immediately press the clutch again and check if the gear is in neutral; after releasing the clutch, turn off the engine before exiting the vehicle. 3. When exiting the vehicle by the roadside, always check for oncoming traffic or pedestrians to ensure safety before getting out.
