Shift lock override. You have to press the brake to shift out of park and this won't work if the car's off. If the car won't start and you have to put it in neutral, etc, putting your/a key in the slot should release the lock.

What side is the stick shift on in European cars?

It's still in the middle of the car, surprisingly, even European people prefer to not have to climb over the gear lever to get into the car. Irrespective of what side the steering wheel is, the gear lever is in the centre. On 99% of cars, first gear would be top right of the shift gate, with 5th gear top left, also irrespective of which side the steering wheel is.


How do you drive a manual transmission pocket bike?

There is a Left Hand Lever on the handlebars whick you can pull. That pulls on the clutch which allows you to change gears by kicking up a small lever a little bit forward on the left foot peg. To start off, you hold down the clutch lever, kick up the foot peg lever to 1st gear, slowly give it a little gas by twisted the throttle just a little bit, and then slowsly let go of the clutch hand lever. While riding, when you need to change gears, just hold down the hand lever, kick up to the next gear, and then you can let go of the hand lever. Hope this helps.

How do you shift into second gear on a motorbike?

Almost all motorcycles are manual, and have a gear lever (not like a car, but a foot-operated lever) typically on the left hand side, in front of the left footrest, so that it can be operated by the left foot (some older British bikes have the gear lever on the right hand side). The order of gears, from the bottom, is 1-N-2-3-4-5-6 (some motorcycles may have 5 gears or less, but the order is still the same). For example, if you are in first gear, to change up to second you will throttle off and simultaneously pull in the clutch (left hand lever), then shift the lever up using the top of your boot (it can get stuck in neutral when you are starting out), and then slip the clutch and and apply throttle again. Changing down from third involves pulling the clutch in and throttling off again, and then pushing down on the lever with the sole of your boot. It is good practice to also "blip" the throttle when you are changing down and the clutch is in, so that when the gears re-mesh they are in-sync and the change occurs more smoothly - this is also better for your motorbike.
