Will I lose points if I immediately correct a wrong gear shift during Subject 3?
1 Answers
If the gear is mistakenly shifted incorrectly, the examinee can immediately press the clutch, return the gear to its original position, and then shift again. Here are specific methods to avoid wrong gear shifts in Subject 3: 1. Use wrist strength to shift gears: Some students, even after memorizing the gear layout, still make mistakes due to inflexible wrist strength. They use brute force from the palm instead of deft wrist movements, often applying excessive force and shifting to the wrong position. The correct shifting posture involves holding the gear lever at the top with four fingers (excluding the thumb) together. For each shift, first move to the neutral position, then pull to the corresponding gear position. 2. Fully depress the clutch: The clutch pedal controls the engagement and separation of two power components inside the vehicle. Only when the clutch pedal is fully depressed, ensuring complete separation between these components, will the gear shift be smooth and free from gear grinding.
