DRIVING ON 55 MPH STRAIGHT TWO LANE ROAD WHEN CAR AHEAD SLOWED. TO RECOVER ENERGY TO THE BATTERY, DROPPED FROM "D" TO "L" IN GEAR SELECTION RATHER THAN USING BRAKES (WAS PLENTY OF DISTANCE, BUT NOT ENOUGH TO COAST). CAR IN FRONT TURNED OFF TO RIGHT. I ADVANCED SELECTOR TO DRIVE, BUT OVERSHOT INTO NEUTRAL. REALIZED MY ERROR WHEN PRESSING ACCELERATOR YIELDED NO SPEED INCREASE.

ADVANCED DELIBERATELY INTO N, THEN BACK TO D, THEN REAPPLIED ACCELERATOR WITH FUNCTIONAL RESULT THIS TIME. I AM A PE WITH SIEMENS VDO, RETIRED.
