Q #601 - Why could it be dangerous to keep the clutch down, or select neutral, for long periods of time while you're driving?
Letting your vehicle roll or coast in neutral reduces your control over steering and braking. This can be dangerous on downhill slopes, where your vehicle could pick up speed very quickly.
Fuel spillage will occur
Engine damage may be caused
You'll have less steering and braking control
It will wear tyres out more quickly
