when to use gear 1 and 2 in automatic

Hello there! Of course, I'm here to help you. What's your question about automatic cars?

Sure! In normal driving conditions, automatic cars will shift gears on their own, so you rarely need to manually select gears. However, using gear 1, or 'L' (Low), is useful when you need maximum engine braking, like descending a steep road. Gear 2, or '2', can be used when you need some engine braking but also need to maintain a higher speed, for example when driving on an undulating road.

That's correct! In slippery conditions, starting in 2nd gear can help reduce wheel slip. But remember, it’s always important to drive slow and cautious in such conditions.
