Where are the accelerator and brake pedals located?
1 Answers
The rightmost pedal is the accelerator pedal, and to its left is the brake pedal. The positions and design purposes of these two pedals are as follows: Method to identify the accelerator and brake positions: In automatic transmission vehicles, the accelerator and brake are easier to identify. There are only two pedals located below the driver's console, arranged from left to right as the brake pedal and the accelerator pedal, both controlled solely by the right foot. Design purposes of the accelerator and brake: Based on ergonomics, the design aims to enable the driver to react quickly in emergencies. To prevent misjudgment while driving an automatic transmission vehicle, manufacturers set the accelerator pedal lower and the brake pedal relatively higher. This design helps avoid the dangerous situation where the driver might mistakenly press the accelerator instead of the brake during driving.
