The Book Theory Test Today<\/b> blogger says: \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Stalling a car is like being a parent; nothing can prepare you for it. Before you set foot in a vehicle and experience it for yourself you can\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t learn to overcome it. I remember stalling the car endless times during my driving lessons, so trust me when I say it can be beaten.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/span><\/p>\n

Until you get behind the wheel of a car your only encounter with stalling comes when revising for your theory test<\/b>, but that doesn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t really help does it?<\/span><\/p>\n

So, let\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s give you some help using a visual aid!<\/span><\/p>\n

The Book Theory Test Today<\/b> blogger says: \u00e2\u20ac\u0153This diagram gives a basic insight into how the clutch pedal works.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/span><\/p>\n

Engine A: <\/b>Features a clutch pedal that\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s depressed (no not feeling down). This causes the clutch plates to part, ultimately disengaging the engine from the gearbox. This action allows you to change gear accordingly. The speed at which you depress the clutch pedal is up to you.<\/span><\/p>\n

Engine B<\/b>: Shows a clutch pedal that is fully released, allowing the clutch plates to connect and engage the gearbox. Compared to the scenario shown in engine A, speed in this situation determines the outcome.<\/span><\/p>\n

Bring the clutch pedal up too quickly then the plates slam together abruptly. The Book Theory Test Today <\/b>blogger says:\u00c2\u00a0 <\/span>\u00e2\u20ac\u0153It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s the action of releasing the clutch pedal too quickly that causes a vehicle to stall.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/span><\/p>\n

How do I stop myself stalling?<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

In theory the answer is simple; don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t release the clutch too quickly. In reality, you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re not going to get it right first time; it takes a bit of practice. However, every car has a \u00e2\u20ac\u02dctell\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 known as the bite point. The bite point indicates that the car is set correctly to move off.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Book Theory Test Today<\/b> blogger says: \u00e2\u20ac\u0153The bite point on every vehicle is different so it will take you a little time to get a feel for the bite point in the vehicle you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re driving. Once you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve mastered the bite point you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll be on your way to stopping yourself from stalling. Hooray.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/span><\/p>\n

A top technique\u00c2\u00a0<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

There are several techniques that will help prevent you from stalling. Some are incredibly laborious, but there\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s one from my own personal experience as a learner motorist that helped me to conquer stalling once and for all.<\/span><\/p>\n

This is my overcoming stalling \u00e2\u20ac\u02dcsecret recipe\u00e2\u20ac\u2122<\/span><\/p>\n

Depress the clutch completely<\/span><\/p>\n

Select first gear<\/span><\/p>\n

Press down on the accelerator, keeping the rev counter at level 2 <\/span><\/p>\n

Slowly start to raise the clutch pedal<\/span><\/p>\n

Just before the clutch hits the bite point, release the handbrake<\/span><\/p>\n

These steps put the car in motion naturally because the hand brake has been released. As the car begins to move, slowly bring the clutch up fully while gently increasing your acceleration. Success!<\/span><\/p>\n

This technique will require constant practice, and needs breaking down at the various stages, but eventually it will become a natural and fluid process.<\/span><\/p>\n
