Which gear should I put on when the light is red, such as automatic gear?

What gear to put on at a red light, such as automatic parking, depends on the time to wait for the red light. The gears are as follows:

1, the red light is within 30 seconds. It is recommended that the driver directly step on the brakes.

2. When the red light reaches 1 min within 30 seconds, the driver should choose to put N gear+handbrake.

3. If the red light lasts for more than one minute, it is recommended to directly hang P gear+handbrake.

In addition to waiting for traffic lights, automatic cars also stall or idle for a long time. In this case, it is necessary to shift the gear into P gear, because after shifting into P gear, the parking pawl of the gearbox will engage with the groove, thus locking the transmission part of the car. The correct way to stop is to step on the brake, shift into N gear, and then hold the brake hand and release the brake pedal. When the vehicle stops, put into P gear.

Extended data

Matters needing attention in driving automatic transmission at ordinary times:

1, wait for the red light to shift gears.

When waiting for a short red light, you can use D gear and step on the brake. But if the time is long, it will lead to overheating and wear of brake pads. It is recommended to shift to P gear or N gear, which will be easier at first and lower fuel consumption. On a slope, it is recommended to shift to P gear, so as to ensure that the car will not slip. It is safe. When hanging N gear on a flat road, remember to hold the hand brake tightly to prevent danger.

2. Start the car with P gear.

In auto start, the gear from P to D will pass through R, which will have a reverse impact on the gearbox and damage the gearbox. In the long run, it will damage the vehicle. The correct way is to turn on the power supply, step on the brake, and shift to D gear after N gear is engaged.
