Is the forward gear N or D?
1 Answers
The forward gear is the D gear. The full English name of the D gear is 'drive,' meaning to drive, so the D gear is the forward gear, while the N gear stands for neutral. One explanation is that the N in N gear stands for 'none,' while another suggests it stands for 'neutral.' Here is some additional information: 1. When driving an automatic transmission vehicle, simply shift the gear to D to drive forward normally. 2. Many vehicles have corresponding safety measures in place. For instance, the vehicle cannot be started when in D gear to prevent accidents caused by drivers mistakenly operating or starting the engine, which could lead to sudden vehicle movement. 3. When starting the vehicle, the driver should first press the brake pedal, shift the gear to N or P, and then press the one-touch start switch or use the key to start the vehicle. This is the correct procedure. Additionally, when the vehicle is in D gear, the engine and transmission will automatically adjust the gear based on the current speed, requiring no manual intervention from the driver.
