What are the 1.2.3 gears on a automatic car?
Are there any other situations where using a lower gear would be beneficial?
Yes, using a lower gear can also help with control in slippery or icy conditions, as the lower gear will allow for slower acceleration and more controlled braking. Additionally, using a lower gear can be useful for engine braking, which is when the engine slows the car down instead of the brakes. This can help to avoid overheating or wearing out the brakes over a long downhill stretch.
