What are the correct driving steps for a CR-V automatic transmission vehicle?

First, you need to press the brake pedal in the vehicle's cockpit; otherwise, the vehicle cannot be started. Then, press the button below the steering wheel, which is the one-touch start button, to start the vehicle's engine. Next, toggle the electronic parking brake button located at the center console to release the vehicle's brake. After that, shift the gear lever to D (Drive) mode, and finally, release the brake pedal to allow the vehicle to move normally.
When I first learned to drive, I was a bit nervous handling the CR-V automatic transmission, but I got familiar with it quickly. Before getting in the car, check if the doors are properly closed. Once seated, adjust the seat and rearview mirrors to ensure clear visibility, and always fasten the seatbelt—don’t slack off. Press the brake pedal, turn the key to start the engine, and wait for the engine sound to stabilize before proceeding. Shift the gear lever from P (Park) to D (Drive), release the handbrake gently to start, and avoid stomping on the accelerator to prevent jerking. While driving, keep your eyes forward and stay observant of the road. Slow down in advance for turns or stops, and apply the brakes lightly to avoid sudden halts. When parking, press the brake until the car comes to a complete stop, shift to P, engage the handbrake or press the electronic brake button, and finally turn off the engine and remove the key. I think the key is to practice more—find an empty lot to get familiar with the car’s responses, and confidence will naturally follow.
