Waiting at a light in an automatic car with the lever in D, you lift your foot slightly off the brake and the car slowly moves forward without you pressing the accelerator. Which statement about this is correct?
💡 Hint
An automatic transmission car in D or R tends to creep slowly forward even without pressing the accelerator. This force does not occur in N and is not enough to hold the car on a steep uphill, so be suspicious of absolute words like "never".
Answer: ④
Explanation
An automatic car in D or R moves slowly even without the accelerator; this is called creep. So lifting off the brake while stopped can make you hit the car ahead or roll into a crosswalk. In N no power reaches the wheels, and on a steep uphill creep alone cannot hold the car, so it may roll back.
