What is the correct way to operate the brake pedal?
1 Answers
The brake pedal of a car is operated by pressing it with the ball of the right foot, using the extension and flexion of the knee joint to depress or release it. When operating the pedal, it is important not to wear slippers to avoid slipping, which could lead to loss of control of the vehicle. Here is an introduction to vehicle braking: 1. The parking brake provides resistance to the vehicle when it is stationary. 2. The handbrake or the parking gear in an automatic transmission locks the vehicle's drive shaft or rear wheels. 3. The electronic parking brake system combines temporary braking during driving with prolonged braking after parking, all controlled electronically. 4. The working principle of the parking brake is the same as that of a mechanical handbrake, both achieving the purpose of parking braking through the friction generated between the brake pads and the brake disc. 5. Generally, vehicle brakes can be divided into drum brakes and disc brakes. Small vehicles often use drum brakes, which are easier to install.
