Where is the Brake Pedal Located?

[AriannaLynn]

The brake pedal is the foot brake, and its position varies in two scenarios: 1. For automatic transmission vehicles, there are two pedals at the footwell, with the left one being the brake. 2. For manual transmission vehicles, there are three pedals, and the middle one is the brake. Brake Pedal: This is the pedal that limits power, specifically the foot brake (service brake) pedal. It is used to decelerate or stop the vehicle and is one of the five major controls in car operation, with a very high frequency of use. The driver's control over the brake pedal directly impacts driving safety. Situations where the brake pedal should be avoided: 1. For small passenger vehicles on long downhill slopes, it is recommended to use a lower gear and rely on engine braking for deceleration, minimizing the use of the brake pedal. 2. For large vehicles or heavily loaded vehicles on long downhill slopes, it is crucial not to hold the brake pedal down continuously; engine braking must be used instead. The reason for this is to prevent brake failure.
