Control & OperationPregunta 79 de 120
Why should you avoid coasting in neutral while driving a commercial vehicle?
a.It wears out the clutch pedal spring
b.It causes the tachometer to read incorrectly
c.You lose engine braking and the ability to accelerate out of a hazard, and it is illegal in many states
d.It automatically disables the ABS
Explicación
In neutral the engine no longer helps control speed and you cannot power away from a developing hazard, which is why most states prohibit it. Clutch springs, tachometer accuracy, and ABS operation are unrelated to being in neutral.
