Here's my advice as a driver (I have a license, but I don't have a vehicle yet). You got to pivot your right foot between the brake and the gas pedal. Make sure you don't have your right foot too high on both the gas and the brake. Otherwise, you would go too fast when pressing the accelerator, or you stop too quickly when braking. If your right foot is too high for both the brake and gas pedals, move your foot back a little bit. Remember, pivot your foot at an acute angle between the brake and gas pedals. That's how you're going to control the car whether you're driving a manual or an automatic. That's how I do it. Drive safely, everyone.

Just before coming to a full stop ease off the pressure of the brake pedal ever so slightly to get a nice smooth jerk free stop. 🙃

[@DrivingTV1111]

Exactly great tip!

[@WayneTulip-zm9gw]

Thank you very much and nice to meet you. 🙃

[@Thysty]

Omg thank you so much, recently just started driving and starting to get the hang of it but my braking was jerking everytime!! Ima try this..!

[@WayneTulip-zm9gw]

You’re always very welcome, it really does work, of course don’t come off the brake pedal completely, just release the pressure of the brake pedal ever so slightly just before coming to a full stop. 🙃

[@Thysty]
