What is the driving method for automatic transmission cars?
2 Answers
Automatic transmission car driving method is: 1. Use the remote control or key to open the door and enter the driver's seat; 2. Start the car, place your right foot on the brake pedal and press down, insert the key, and turn the key clockwise to start the car; 3. Select the gear, keep your foot on the brake, and move the gear lever to the drive position, which is marked as 'D' on the display panel. The letter will light up when the gear is successfully engaged; 4. Release the handbrake, which is located as a lever between the two front seats. Lower handbrake models may have an unlocking handle, while higher handbrake models will have a button that needs to be pressed before releasing; 5. Gradually release the pressure on the brake pedal, and the car will start to move slowly.
The first time I drove an automatic car, I found it quite simple with fewer steps. First, adjust the seat and mirrors, fasten the seatbelt, press the brake with your right foot, then insert the key to start the engine or press the start button. After the engine starts, shift the gear lever to D (Drive), release the handbrake, and slowly release the brake while gently pressing the accelerator to move. While driving, I mainly focus on the accelerator and brake: press the accelerator to speed up, and gently press the brake to slow down, avoiding sudden braking. When parking, press the brake, shift to P (Park), engage the handbrake, and turn off the engine. At first, I was nervous on the road, but I got used to it, especially at city intersections where stopping at red lights became natural. Remember not to shift gears while moving to avoid damaging the transmission. Regularly check the fuel level, and drive slower in bad weather. Driving an automatic is much less stressful than a manual, especially for beginners, allowing more focus on observing road conditions to prevent accidents.
