In other words, do mean cars run faster in D2 than in the ordinary D? And at what point should it be relevant to On Overdrive or Off Overdrive?

no video can teach you how to drive manual cars perfectly. in fact, i won't even advise you to rely on what you see on the video. get registered to one of these driving schools and let them coach you practically. you'd be surprised that the technicalities of manual driving differs from one make of car to another

He's not wasting his time. I drive manual gear (less than 2yrs experience though) but i have always been afraid to drive auto because no one has explained it to me in details like this before. With this I think I'm good to go...

Still have a question though, @Op: which one do you use when you're in a start-stop slow hold up? Is it still the same " D '' or "L"?

funny but true. When I switched to auto, I would always come back and tell my bro that the car was flying, I didn't feel like I was in control. He would laugh and say I like suffer angry.
My greatest fear has to be driving SUVs, I feel like I would climb other small cars...

Some Automatic transmission allow you drive the car like a manual.

Look at the attached picture, the + & - sign to the left is for increasing and decreasing speed (like changing gears in manual)
