learning
to drive in an automatic car |
Learning
to start, stop and steer is much
easier in automatic cars.
The
right foot should normally be used
to control the accelerator and footbrake.
Because there is no clutch, your
left foot should not need to be used
at all. When the initial gear selection
has been made, usually when the vehicle
is stopped, all subsequent changes
are carried out automatically. They
are regulated by the car's speed
and the pressure applied on the accelerator.
When driving automatic cars, the brakes
have to be used more often to avoid
its natural tendency to creep forwards.
Automatic cars enable drivers to
concentrate on the more important
things, such as planning ahead &
steering. |

Automatic
car test basics |
If
you pass your test in an
automatic car your licence
will only entitle you to
drive an automatic. If you
wanted to drive a manual
car, you would have to take
the manual test. |
