1. Make sure the parking brake is engaged. This is crucial for safety.
2. Press the brake pedal firmly. This prevents the car from rolling forward unexpectedly.
3. Push the shift lever button (or possibly a lever depending on the specific transmission type). There's usually a button you have to depress on the shift lever itself to unlock it from the Park position. Some might have a small lever to move instead.
4. Move the shift lever from P (Park) to D (Drive). Do this smoothly and deliberately.
If you're having trouble shifting, ensure your car is completely stopped, and try the button/lever again with firm pressure. If it still doesn't work, there might be a mechanical issue with your transmission or shifter. You should consult a mechanic in that case.
