Fine - you bring the vehicle to a halt using the footbrake.
To drive off in a vehicle with manual transmission you need to use the accelerator and
clutch.
If you know of a way of holding the car braked on a hill whilst using the accelerator
and clutch that doesn't involve 3 feet please let me know !
Any intelligent person sets the handbrake on a hill after coming to a halt. Thereafter
you don't need to use the brake pedal.
To set off - engage gear, apply a slight amount of accelerator whilst releasing the
clutch and disengaging the handbrake. It's second nature when you've learnt to drive
properly.
