Correct answer

  • CPuede darse una aceleración en vacíoThe engine may rev without the car moving
Explanation

When we move off after being stopped, we must press the accelerator pedal gently, because if we press it suddenly all the way down, the engine may rev without the car moving, which will damage the vehicle.
