Because for use in cities where the road contours tend to be flat, the L position is practically never used, right?
So when is the right condition to use it and how to operate it?
For your information, when the transmission lever is positioned to L, the transmission will not shift to a higher gear or stay in the lowest gear or 1st gear continuously.
