After parking on a level surface, what should you do before leaving the vehicle?
- Put the vehicle in Park, or in gear with a manual transmission, and set the parking brake
- Leave the transmission in neutral and release the parking brake
- Keep the engine running and leave the vehicle in Drive
- Turn the wheels toward traffic and omit the brake
Answer: Put the vehicle in Park, or in gear with a manual transmission, and set the parking brake. On a level surface, place an automatic transmission in Park, or leave a manual transmission in gear, and set the parking brake. These steps help keep the vehicle from rolling after you leave it. Neutral removes the transmission’s holding position, and Drive is not a parking setting. Keeping the engine running does not replace securing the vehicle. Think of the sequence as transmission position first, then parking brake, before opening the door or walking away.
