Why does the vehicle continue to move without pressing the accelerator?
1 Answers
Without pressing the accelerator, the vehicle continues to move because automatic transmission cars are not equipped with a clutch. Here are the detailed explanations regarding vehicle movement: 1. Definition: The clutch is a component directly connected to the engine in the car's transmission system. The clutch is responsible for disengaging and engaging the power and transmission systems, thus ensuring smooth starting of the car and smooth gear shifting. 2. Precautions: The clutch cannot be used as a brake. If the clutch is pressed at high speed, since the transmission and wheels are disconnected, the engine will not be able to control the vehicle speed.
