Gestul pe care mulți șoferi îl fac la fiecare semafor: greșeala te poate ”arde” la buzunar

Many drivers habitually keep the clutch pressed while waiting at traffic lights, which can lead to unnecessary wear on the clutch system. This practice puts continuous pressure on the release bearing, especially during long stops. A better approach is to shift to neutral and use the handbrake, reducing strain on the clutch components. While occasional clutch use at lights is not immediately damaging, long-term habits can lead to increased wear, particularly for those frequently driving in urban traffic. Additionally, resting a hand on the gear lever can also contribute to unnecessary wear on the transmission components.
