About Hill start: two risks, one coordinated action: which statements are correct? (multiple answers possible)

  1. ✓ This requires a well-coordinated use of the handbrake, the throttle, AND the clutch pedal — none of the three is secondary.
  2. ✓ In this sentence 'afslaat' stands alongside 'rolling backward' as the car's second risk, not your steering direction: the engine stalls.
  3. The only real risk during a hill start is the car rolling back; a stalling engine is not dangerous, just annoying at most.
  4. When pulling away on a hill you only use the throttle and clutch; the handbrake is only meant for when you park the car.

Correct answer: This requires a well-coordinated use of the handbrake, the throttle, AND the clutch pedal — none of the three is secondary.; In this sentence 'afslaat' stands alongside 'rolling backward' as the car's second risk, not your steering direction: the engine stalls.
