Where is the throttle pedal located in a motor vehicle?
1 Answers
For automatic transmission vehicles, the left pedal is the brake and the right one is the throttle; for manual transmission vehicles, from left to right are the clutch pedal, brake pedal, and throttle pedal respectively. Here are detailed explanations: 1. In automatic transmission vehicles, both the brake and throttle must be controlled by the right foot only. Never use one foot for each pedal as this could easily lead to simultaneous pressing of both throttle and brake. 2. In manual transmission models, the left foot typically controls the clutch pedal while the right foot operates both the brake and throttle pedals. There might be situations where the throttle is mistakenly pressed instead of the brake, so it's crucial to stay focused while driving, keep the right foot on the brake, and preferably press the throttle at an angle while stepping on the brake straight.
