When to Step on the Accelerator?

[VonAustin]

Generally, when starting a car, you need to step on the accelerator while releasing the clutch. Below is an introduction to coordinating the clutch and accelerator in different situations: 1. Starting: When starting, pay attention to combining it with the vehicle speed. First, place the gear in the neutral position, start the engine, press the clutch all the way down, then shift into first gear, and finally release the clutch. When releasing the clutch, do it slowly. As you feel the car slightly vibrate and begin to move forward, gently press the accelerator while continuing to release the clutch until it is fully released. 2. Shifting gears: As the vehicle speed increases, the speed of releasing the clutch pedal gradually accelerates. Before shifting gears, to ensure smooth shifting, coordinate well with the accelerator, but avoid pressing it too hard.
