When a driver stops their vehicle on an incline where the nose of the car is sufficiently higher than the rear of the car, the system is engaged when the driver's foot is depressing the brake pedal, and then the clutch pedal is fully depressed. Once set, the driver must keep the clutch pedal fully depressed, however, they may remove their foot from the brake pedal. To disengage the system and move the car forward, the driver selects first gear, feathers(applies) the gas pedal, and slowly releases the clutch pedal, which, at a point in its travel, releases the braking system allowing the car to proceed.  2, record 1, English, - hill%20holder

... the skid marks were produced as part of a skid test with the vehicle equipped with a chalk bumper gun. With this device, we can see where the car was when the brakes were first applied and where the skid marks become visible.... The gun... fires a small piece of chalk to the ground when a pressure switch on the brake pedal is depressed as the brakes are applied. This provides a reference mark on the road, that can be measured to the gun's position on the car and the actual braking, or skid, distance can be measured.  1, record 4, English, - chalk%20bumper%20gun
