Ch. 8 · 第3節 安全な運転の方法

In the middle of a curve, it is good to disengage the clutch and coast, then accelerate in the latter half of the curve.

[True / False · Hard]

Answer: False

Explanation

The Rules of the Road state that "without disengaging the clutch, keep engine power applied to the wheels at all times, and in the latter half of the curve, after confirming safety ahead, accelerate slightly." The correct method is to maintain engine braking by not disengaging the clutch.
