Using the clutch to manoeuvre at slow speed

ALL DRIVING SKILLS 

Using the clutch to manoeuvre at slow speed

Before practising moving off it is worth learning how to make the car creep 

forward slowly and stop it again using the clutch pedal. Choose a level road and prepare the car to move off by selecting first gear, setting the gas and finding the biting point. Keep your feet still and, when safe, release the parking 

brake. If you have correctly found the biting point, the car shouldn’t move. If it 

starts to creep forward, you need to push the clutch pedal down very slightly to 

stop it again. Practise using the clutch pedal to move the car forward a couple 

of metres by raising the clutch pedal slightly and then stopping it again by

dipping the clutch pedal back to the biting point. This procedure is known as clutch control and will help you to move off smoothly. READ MORE
