Hi All,
Driviging in city conditions, I felt that if we can have a couple of
improvements in power transmision of cars, life for all drivers,
particularly, new drivers would be so much better, and not to mention
much safer for every one on road
One) just like gear less mopeds, a provision to break your vehicle (to
0) and then simply start without stopping the engine. In traffic jams,
or ver slow traffic, a lot of people get stuck as they do not release
the clutch smoothly and the car stops with a jerk. This is not good
for the car or for traffic in genral. If we have an option like say in
first gear, the engine wont stop even at 0 speed or when left idle, it will really be
good for city driving.
Two) A reverse break, that only prevents the car from going back but
has no role to play if the car is moving forward. This is again for
people who are not adept at using clutch as in hilly areas or while
climbing on flyovers admist a jam, one is forced to use a combination
of clutch break and accelerator to ensue theat the car moves up, stops
exactly where it should and does not roll backwards.
I am not too sure if there is any technology of this sort available
anywhere int he world, but I guess it should not be very complicated,
but definitely very useful while driving.
What say?
