auto question

When drivin along this morning I bumped the gear lever, and shifted to N. I shit hot coals and smashed it back to 2nd! lucky had only just taken off from lights.. Would be expensive if you hit Reverse by accident.
What is it that needs adjusting to stop it coming out of Drive into N or REVERSE!
Is it an easy adjustment?

There is nothing to prevent you from popping into neutral, nor need there be.

install a ratchet shifter system
they have a neutral and reverse lockout (operated with a button)

Being my first auto, I thought that you would need to press the button to move between gears?
... so there would be from D - N - R? cause that could get expensive...

Most auto's that I have driven have a lockout on -(assuming P-N-D-2-1)
P - R
N - R
2 - 1
Where as you can go from
D - 2
1 - 2
2 - D
D - N
Without the button being pushed.

The idea is by not pressing the button from drive to neutral it wont go all the way into reverse unless you pressed the button while shifting.
