When slowing down, should you press the brake or the clutch first?
1 Answers
Whether to press the brake or the clutch first when slowing down depends on different situations: 1. When driving at high speed: you need to press the brake first and then the clutch; 2. When driving at low speed: you can directly press the clutch and then the brake; 3. When slightly decelerating: simply release the accelerator pedal without pressing the clutch or brake. Precautions for using the clutch are: 1. Avoid pressing the clutch for a long time or keeping your foot on the pedal to prevent premature damage to the release bearing; 2. Do not press the clutch first during emergency braking to avoid losing engine braking. The functions of the brake system are: 1. To force the moving car to decelerate or even stop as required by the driver; 2. To keep the moving car stably parked under various road conditions; 3. To maintain a stable speed for the car when driving downhill.
