What do the letters RNDS in a car represent?

[DeHarper]

RNDS in a car represents the gear positions of the vehicle's transmission. Generally, automatic transmission vehicles have gear positions P, R, N, D, and S. P: Parking gear. When the car is parked, the gear lever must be shifted into the P position. R: Reverse gear. This gear is used when the car is reversing. D: Drive gear. During normal driving, the gear lever is placed in the D position, allowing the car to automatically shift between forward gears. N: Neutral gear. The N position is equivalent to neutral and can be used when starting the car, parking without leaving the vehicle, or when towing. S: Sport mode. In S mode, the transmission can shift freely, but the shifting timing is delayed, keeping the engine at high RPM for a longer period. Precautions for shifting gears in a car: Avoid looking down at the gear lever while shifting, and avoid driving in low gear for extended periods. Generally, higher gears are more fuel-efficient than lower gears. Therefore, shift up promptly after starting. Ensure the clutch is fully depressed when shifting to prevent gear damage. Additionally, avoid resting your foot on the clutch when not in use, as this can cause excessive wear on the release bearing. Avoid veering off course while shifting, and do not force the gear lever if it doesn't engage smoothly. Avoid rocking the gear lever back and forth when in neutral, as this can cause unnecessary wear and affect shifting timing. Avoid skipping gears when upshifting; upshifting should be done step by step to maintain continuous power. Downshifting, however, can skip gears. Avoid shifting into reverse before the car comes to a complete stop, as this can damage the gears.
