92. Ill-informed? Putting a car into neutral disengages the driving wheels

Edited on Mon Mar-15-10 08:48 PM by PBS Poll-435

And stops engine braking that would normally occur when the RPMs falls below the acceleration threshold.

Power steering and brake operation continue normally.

If the car was already "out of control," what would be the purpose of claiming to be afraid of the car going "out of control?"

Unless you wanted to drag a 20 second event into 20+ minutes...?
