Never Use Neutral Gears at the "Down Road"

Perhaps, there is still a car driver like counteract gears when descending through the streets with the goal of saving fuel. Reasonable cause because the machine is idle. To be honest, it is actually very dangerous act and inviting death.

By moving to a neutral position would be more efficient due to the fuel cut. But the effect is not much and it almost did not happen if the calculated accumulation trip. Treatment like this is not true.

Cumulatively, there was virtually no influence in saving fuel. Therefore, it is not always possible in the course of generations, there must be a road incline, flat, and acceleration or deceleration.

Dangerous behavior is not only true when it is in such a toll highway or hilly areas, but also includes when dropped from a mall parking lot. Imagine, in a state car transmission neutral position, then suddenly there are people or vehicles crossing lanes. Not only for the manual transmission, the same thing in an automatic transmission. Try to put it in low gear position to get the engine braking effect.

The condition of the car with the transmission in neutral while downhill, like someone was walking then pushed. Obviously would immediately run fast. You can imagine if you suddenly have to stop, obviously very hassles. Even so for the automatic transmission. When left in the D position, the ECU will read if the car is going to go faster. Therefore, there will always be moved to a higher position.

As the car slid to the neutral position and there are things to do sudden braking, obviously would hassles. It seems also to be very difficult to be immediately stopped. This means dangerous conditions for motorists and the surrounding environment.

The more dangerous if the use of big cars that have a heavy burden. Stopping distance will be very different. With the heavy burden thrust too great. To be able to stop obviously requires a greater distance than a car that lightly.


At neutral gears, means it will continue to rely on the brakes. Routine brake pedal, braking is very likely due to the performance of heat loss. Other effects, brake oil was so hot and boiling. When that happens boiling bubbles in the brake fluid tubes and channeled to the brake lines. This is what makes brake tension.
