Ch. 5 · 第9節 オートマチック車などの運転

If an automatic transmission vehicle stalls inside a railroad crossing or intersection, it is possible to move the vehicle by operating the starter motor, just as with a manual transmission vehicle.

[True / False · Hard]

Answer: False

Explanation

This statement is incorrect. With a manual transmission vehicle, you can move the vehicle using the starter motor without disengaging the clutch, but this method cannot be used with an automatic transmission vehicle. This is because, due to the structure of automatic transmission vehicles, drive from the starter motor is not transmitted. This difference is clearly stated in Chapter 5, Section 9 of the Rules of the Road (Driving Automatic Transmission Vehicles, etc.).
