2. It’s better to exceed than to suppress

Many projects have the operation of chasing the line. The method of chasing the line when parking at a fixed point is still the same. Use the 1/3 of the right front corner of the hood to chase the line. If the distance is not properly grasped due to various reasons, you would rather the distance exceed 30cm than press the line on the side of the road. The line pressing will directly fail.

3. Apply the brakes in time

After reaching the point, you must brake in time and the clutch must still be stable. After completing this step, if you find signs of the car body rolling back, quickly apply the brakes and clutch to stop the car, and then start again. Stalling is usually caused by the instability of the left foot on the clutch at the critical point of semi-linkage. It requires repeated practice to strengthen clutch control.

4. Calm your mind

30 seconds is plenty of time to get started. After parking, even if there are signs of the car slipping, it is enough time to brake and start again, so don't be impatient.
