park mode

**park mode**

Park mode is a feature commonly found in vehicles and certain devices that allows them to remain stationary and secure while still maintaining some level of functionality. In the context of automotive technology, park mode typically refers to the gear position in automatic transmissions that locks the transmission and prevents the vehicle from moving. Additionally, modern vehicles may use park mode to activate safety features such as parking sensors, cameras, or to optimize battery usage in electric and hybrid cars. This term can also apply in other contexts, such as cameras or drones, where park mode keeps the device ready and stable without full operation.
