How to Wait at Traffic Lights with an Automatic Transmission Car?

[LaMolly]

If waiting at a red light for about 10 seconds, stay in D gear and press the brake, then drive directly when the light turns green. If the wait is longer, over half a minute, shift to N gear. Below is relevant information about automatic transmission cars: 1. Introduction: D gear is the drive gear, which always has power output, while N gear is the neutral gear, which does not wear the transmission. If the road has a slope, shift to N gear while pressing the brake to prevent the car from rolling. Many vehicles are equipped with an automatic parking function: when the brake is pressed until the vehicle comes to a complete stop, releasing the foot will not cause the vehicle to move, and pressing the accelerator again will resume driving. This feature can free the driver's feet during stops and is useful for slightly longer waits. 2. Precautions: Do not shift to P gear when waiting at a red light. If the car is in P gear during a red light and gets rear-ended, the transmission could be severely damaged.
