A suicide clutch is a clutch on some old school choppers and motorcycles, where to disengage the clutch instead of using a hand control on the handle bars, you would pull a handle on the side of the motor to engage and disengage the clutch. So at any real good speed if you weren't paying attention you could commit suicide changing gears ( loose your balance and fall off, ouch owee "road rash")

When you accelerate in a car why does the car change quickly between gears?
If it is an automatic transmission, the speed of the engine (in rpm) is what makes the gears change. Accelerate too much and it will fly up through the gearbox when it is not supposed to. If it is a manual transmission, the gears shouldn't change without the clutch being depressed and you manually changing gear; at most, it will simply disengage and cease turning the wheels.
How do you know if you need a new clutch if the gears change all right and the clutch doesnt slip but you have loss of speed when you change into third gear or go uphill?
If the revs decrease as the speed decreases (in 3rd & uphill) then its not slipping, you don't need a new clutch, but if you are in any gear and the revs are increasing while the speed is decreasing, then the clutch is slipping.
