Default Changing down through the gears.
When you approach a junction do you change down through the gears? I've noticed the following.

1) Just brake and dip the clutch at the last minute.
2) Change down 4th, 2nd 1st
3) Put car into second or third depending on speed and dip clutch at the last minute.

Which were you taught to do and which method do you use?
