A DRIVING expert has revealed the three hidden functions of the neutral gear in automatic cars.<\/p>\n

In a video uploaded to social media, a run through of the three hidden uses of the N gear have been provided by an anonymous woman.<\/p>\n


\n<\/p>\n

The 58 second clip on TikTok is attached with the caption: "99% of drivers don\u2019t know the hidden usage of N gear."<\/p>\n

Converting from a manual car to an automatic car means drivers go from using three pedals to just two as a result of having no gearbox.<\/p>\n

However, automatic drivers do have to get used to a few extras in their new mode of transport.<\/p>\n

That includes the introduction of the "P", "R" "D\/S" and "N" functions on their new gear stick.<\/p>\n

And while the N stands for "neutral", many automatic car users don't know all of its three functions.<\/p>\n

But this TikTok user (@chequanxiaoqiao) has you covered.<\/p>\n

Using captions in her video, she claims that knowing the three hidden uses behind the N gear will not only save you fuel, but could save your life.<\/p>\n

The woman tells viewers that when stopping temporarily or waiting for traffic lights, you should always put the car into N gear and then apply the handbrake.<\/p>\n

Many drivers keep their foot on the brake and keep the car in drive but this wastes petrol and causes the engine to generate a lot of carbon deposits.<\/p>\n

The second use of the N gear is for when your car breaks down or needs to be towed.<\/p>\n

Putting the gear stick into this position ensures your gearbox will not be directly scrapped.<\/p>\n

Finally, the TikTok user tells drivers that when they are ready to stop, they must first shift the gear from D to N and then apply the handbrake.<\/p>\n

Once that is done, drivers should then move the gear stick into P, before releasing the foot brake.<\/p>\n
