Which is the Brake and Which is the Accelerator in a Car?
1 Answers
In a car, the left pedal is the brake, and the right one is the accelerator. For automatic transmission cars, the accelerator and brake are relatively simple, with only two pedals arranged from left to right as the brake pedal and the accelerator pedal, both controlled by the right foot. Manual transmission cars have three pedals, arranged from left to right as the clutch, brake, and accelerator. The brake is the pedal that limits power, also known as the foot brake (service brake) pedal, used for decelerating and stopping. The accelerator pedal is a car accessory that allows drivers to control the pedal more freely, enhancing driving safety. Most accelerator pedals are designed with aluminum alloy, and adding an accelerator pedal can significantly increase the vertical contact area of the pedal.
