What are the tips for novice drivers to shift gears?

1. Before shifting gears, make sure the road conditions ahead are good. You must test driving in the driving lane, which is the middle lane with three lines.

2. The order is to slightly press the accelerator, release it, press the clutch firmly, and shift up.

3. The accelerator and the clutch have a seesaw relationship. Don't press them at the same time. Actually, you can press them at the same time, it will just waste more fuel). The common mistake is not to release the accelerator and press the clutch.

4. Don’t look down at the gear.

5. Shift gears gently. If you hear a slight click in the gear, it means your hands are too heavy and you are nervous.

6. Speed ​​40, 5th gear,

7. If the distance to the car ahead is not enough, do not shift to 5th gear.

8. Look far ahead to avoid being caught in a dragon trap or going off course. The faster you go, the more you will instinctively look further ahead. The smaller your sight range becomes, the greater the danger. Therefore, you must never exceed the speed limit in your life.)

Depending on the vehicle speed, you can shift down across gears or directly from the fifth gear to the second gear, as long as the speed matches the gear position.

How to read the rearview mirror when driving

How to look at the rearview mirror for beginners:

1. You cannot see your car in the central rearview mirror, but in the upper and lower positions, you can see the distant horizon by placing it in the center of the mirror.

2. When the correct position of the left rearview mirror is in the up and down position, the left and right position should be adjusted so that the car body occupies one quarter of the mirror range.

3. When adjusting the up and down position of the right rearview mirror, the ground area should occupy two-thirds of the mirror surface.

The rearview mirror is a tool for the driver to directly obtain external information such as the rear, side and bottom of the car when sitting in the driver's seat. In order to facilitate the driver's operation, prevent the occurrence of traffic safety accidents, and ensure personal safety, all countries have stipulated that rearview mirrors must be installed on cars, and all rearview mirrors must be able to adjust the direction. Rearview mirrors by installation position 1. Interior rearview mirror: The interior rearview mirror is a mirror that can confirm the rear scene without changing the forward line of sight during driving too much. 2. Exterior rearview mirror: Passenger cars generally install exterior rearview mirrors on the door. 3. Lower mirror: The lower mirror allows the driver to see the place other than the front and rear wheels under the car body in the mirror directly in front of the driver's seat. It allows the driver to see whether there are people or obstacles beside the front and rear wheels and the car body when reversing and starting to move forward, so as to avoid hurting people, objects and damaging the vehicle, giving the driver convenience and safety.

What are the driving skills for beginners?

1. Adjust the seat before driving to ensure that your feet can step on the clutch, brake and accelerator firmly and comfortably.

2. For manual transmission cars, shift the car to first gear when starting, press the clutch to the bottom, and put your right foot on the accelerator to get ready.

3. When starting off, slowly lift the clutch with your left foot to almost halfway. When you feel the vehicle shaking, release the handbrake in time, then lightly tap the accelerator. When the car wants to move forward, slowly release the clutch, then add a little more accelerator to start successfully.

4. If you start on a slope, novices should pay special attention. If you release the handbrake too quickly and the clutch is not fully lifted, it is easy to slip. The best way is to step on the clutch and brake when starting. The handbrake can be used or not. Release the brake when the clutch is halfway lifted. At this time, the vehicle is in a semi-clutch state and the car will not slip backwards. At the same time, add the accelerator and slowly release the clutch to start successfully.

5. It is easier to start an automatic transmission car, mainly because its clutch and brake share the same pedal. Like a manual transmission car, you need to adjust the seat before starting. Then step on the brake and push the gear to the "D" position. Then slowly release the brake, and when the vehicle starts to shake, quickly release the handbrake, and then follow up with the accelerator to complete the start. Starting on a slope is the same as on a flat road, just lift the clutch to the correct position, that is, the vehicle does not slide backwards.
