There is a question I want to ask.
I see alot of people driving manual car will free the gear first before applying brake to stop the car but last time when Im in the driving academy, my instructor taught me to press the clutch and brake till the car stop and then only free the gear.
Which one is the right way because my instructor scold me when i use the first technique
It depends on the cruising speed and rpm. when you driving on highspeed, need to brake accidentally, you need to first brake and then press the cluth with transmission. if you know what i mean. if driving at low speed and certain distance from car infront, you can play with the clutch first to free gear and need not to press gear, it depends still, because if you veteran driver, you can sense how fast is the car driving right infront of you. Why do ppl not press the gear sometimes, because once you press the clutch, that will decrease your rpm ratio thus cost your more fuel effiency. Hope this point of view of mine could help I see alot of people driving manual car will free the gear first before applying brake to stop the car but last time when Im in the driving academy, my instructor taught me to press the clutch and brake till the car stop and then only free the gear.
