Some vehicles have a manual transmission which means that you change the gears by operating the clutch and gear stick, and others have an automatic transmission which has no clutch pedal.

This means that the transmission system senses when it is necessary to change gear, and does it automatically without the need for you to use a clutch pedal, or a gear stick.

Driving is much easier in an automatic vehicle, and it allows you more time to focus on the road ahead. But there are things you should know about driving an automatic car.

You will notice a different gear lever layout. P – R – N – D – 2 – 1. Some have a slightly different layout, and maybe another gear, but essentially, this is what you should expect to see.

P – Park (for parking, locks the transmission, only use it when stopped)

R – Reverse

N – Neutral (same as manual gearbox)

D – Drive (this is your forward gear setting)

2 – 2nd gear

1 – 1st gear
