Can You Shift Directly from Third Gear to First Gear?

[Butler]

You can shift directly from third gear to first gear. Here is an introduction to the various gears of an automatic transmission car: 1. P Gear: This is the parking gear, which uses the mechanical device inside the transmission to lock the rotating parts of the car. It must be used only when the vehicle is completely stopped. Additionally, when the car is turned off, the gear must be in P. 2. N Gear: This is the neutral gear. Generally, when making a brief stop, you can shift to neutral, allowing your right foot to rest off the brake pedal. However, on slopes, you still need to press the brake to prevent the car from rolling unless you engage the handbrake or electronic brake. 3. D Gear: This is the drive gear. When in D gear, the driver only needs to control the accelerator pedal to adjust the speed. The transmission will automatically determine the appropriate gear based on the throttle input and vehicle speed, eliminating the need for manual shifting.
