    say you're driving sa expressway at 3rd or 4th gear, puwede bang apakan konti yung brake ng wala ang clutch just to reduce speed?

    sorry for the noob question, wala po kasing formal training

    definitely! brake talaga ang ginagamit para ma reduce and speed and not the clutch, pag ginawa mo sa hiway yan sunog ang clutch mo..

    you know what if you are already planning of driving in hi way I suggest huwag muna, with that kind of question I don't think you are ready to drive sa hi way

    ang habit ko kasi pag mag apply ng brake sa ganun situation is clutch, brake tapos neutral tapos downshift

    ginagawa ko lang yung brake lang pag naka neutral. naisip ko lang kung puwede rin ba yung konting tapak lang sa brake kahit naka engage ang gear.

    kuts...kung new driver ka malaki ang diff ng city driving compared sa Hi-way. if you are planning po to drive sa hi-way dapat you have somebody with you na sanay na and ask him/her first kung ano ang DO's and Dont's.

    highway--overtake at least 15kph more that the vehicle you are overtaking!

    as long as di hirap makina mo, just brake, you dont need to downshift.

    shift as fast as possible, wag mo babad paa mo sa clutch.

    Yes, nakakatulong din ang engine brake sa pag slow down

    Step on the clutch if you want to change gears or if your speed slows down to the point that the engine will stall. Otherwise, there's no need to. ;)
