Is it safe to put the gear in neutral while the car is in motion or momentum?

It depends what you mean by 'safe'.Will putting the car in neutral damage the engine? No...when the car is in neutral the two plates that make up the clutch are seperated. Therefore there is no power being transferred to the wheels. However, as there is no where for the engine's stored power to go to you can over rev the engine....which may cause damage if prolonged.Is putting a car in neutral while driving safe? No....when in neutral you have no power and the car will slow down. This may put you in a dangerous position.Hope that helps,CJ

What are opinions on wwwDoTellAllcom?

They appear to be a neutral site that lists out a variety of scams and frauds. While many abound that pretend to be neutral but are not, I saw nothing that concerned me while there. They could well be legitimate. However, do not invest in something just because a "neutral" website tells you it's safe.


Does the car turn off while in motion?

An engine can fail at any time. Also, if your alternator goes, the car will no longer recharge the battery which means that the car could die after the battery runs out of charge. If you're looking to manually turn off your engine while in motion, the only safe way to do it is to shift into neutral and turn the key to the off position. This can potentially damage the engine, so only do it during emergencies.

You can start your 62 Chevy implala while it is gear How can this be?

It is quite likely that you either have no neutral safety switch in that vehicle, that it has been disabled, or that it no longer functions..... the problem, and only really pertinent issue, is that you could give it gas and roll through the taco stand upon starting....or that it produces more drag on the starter upon the moment of initial startup. both of the above assume that we are talking about an auto trans here.....most vehicles would start in gear with or without the clutch depressed until the 80's when we mandated the neutral safety switch, as well as requiring the brake pedal to be depressed before switching from park to any other gear- child safe, or relatively adult safe.....kinda....
