HOW DOES AN AUTOMATIC CAR WORK?

Automatic cars still have gearboxes. But rather than giving you a choice of five or six gears, most automatic cars instead have four settings:

Park – This basically disengages the transmission, preventing the car from rolling away when you’ve parked. You still have to use the handbrake, though.
Reverse – Makes the car go backwards!
Neutral – Another setting that disengages the transmission. You should never use it when driving, as the lack of engine braking will reduce your control. But it’s good for use when you’ve stopped for a short while, such as at traffic lights.
Drive – For when you want to drive. Put the car in this gear and it’ll automatically select the optimum gear for you.

Some automatic cars let you choose first or second gear. This isn’t really anything to worry about. The lower gear’s just there to give you more control when driving up or down steep hills, or when driving in the ice or the snow. In most circumstances, you can just drive in second gear.

So that’s it. Just pick the gear you need and off you go. There’s no clutch and no gear changes. All you have to worry about it accelerating, braking, and steering.
