What is the driving process for a manual transmission car?

[McHailey]

Manual transmission driving method is as follows: 1. When starting the vehicle, let it idle for about half a minute, then depress the clutch, shift into first gear, simultaneously press the foot brake with your right foot, release the handbrake with your right hand, and slowly lift the clutch. 2. While driving, when the speed reaches 15-20 km/h, shift into second gear. When the speed reaches 25-30 km/h, shift into third gear. 3. To decelerate and stop, apply the brake until the vehicle speed drops below a safe speed, then depress the clutch and shift into neutral. Manual transmission driving techniques include: 1. Seating posture technique. 2. Double-clutch downshifting technique. 3. Clutch disengagement technique. 4. Gear shifting timing. 5. Using gears to control speed technique. 6. Hill start technique. 7. Avoid prolonged use of half-clutch state.

My first time driving a manual transmission car felt both nervous and exciting. The whole process can be roughly divided into several steps: first, sit properly and fasten the seatbelt, then check the dashboard to ensure everything is normal. Before starting the engine, you need to press the clutch pedal to prevent the car from suddenly lurching forward. After shifting into first gear, gently press the accelerator to increase the RPM slightly, while slowly releasing the clutch until you feel the car slightly vibrate—this is called the clutch engagement point. Then continue to release the clutch, and the car will start moving smoothly. Once the speed increases, for example, reaching 20 km/h, you can shift gears: press the clutch, shift out of first gear and into second gear, then repeat the process of releasing the clutch and pressing the accelerator. When slowing down, press the brake and clutch to downshift, and when stopping, shift into neutral, engage the handbrake, and turn off the engine. After practicing the whole process a few times, it will become easier. The key is to stay relaxed and not worry about stalling. When I was learning, I often failed to start on slopes, but later I learned to use the handbrake for assistance, which made it smoother. Once you get used to driving a manual transmission, you can really enjoy the sense of control, but beginners shouldn’t rush—just take it slow.
