What is the sequence of clutch, brake, and acceleration?
1 Answers
The sequence of clutch, brake, and acceleration is as follows: the right pedal is the accelerator for speeding up, the middle pedal is the brake for stopping, and the left pedal is the clutch, which disconnects the power from the engine to the transmission. The sequence of using the brake and clutch has a significant impact on the car. For example, frequently pressing the brake and clutch simultaneously can severely shorten the car's lifespan and, in serious cases, endanger lives. Therefore, using the brake and clutch correctly is very important. For emergency braking, the correct approach is to press the brake first and then press the clutch after the speed decreases. This prevents stalling and avoids damage to the car. During downhill driving, never press the clutch, as doing so is equivalent to coasting in neutral, which is extremely dangerous. If the speed is too high when going downhill, you can lightly tap the brake to accelerate, but never press the clutch. When decelerating at high speeds, you should still press the brake first and then the clutch before shifting gears. When braking, always use intermittent braking (tap the brake), as this provides better braking performance, avoids jerking, and protects the car itself.
