A control method and system for preventing misoperation of a shift lever of a vehicle are provided. In particular, when a driver manipulates the shift lever to select an automatic transmission mode or a manual transmission mode, shifting into an unintended mode attributable to misoperation is prevented. Therefore, the control method and system improve reliability in manipulating the shift lever and provide a safe driving environment to a driver.

Method and system for preventing misoperation of shift lever

A safety method for a passenger of a vehicle may include a control logic for detecting a current gear position in a state where the vehicle is stopped, determining whether a passenger door and a rear seat door are open, and allowing driving in a state where the passenger door and the rear seat door are closed but limiting a vehicle drive by changing the gear position to a non-drivable gear position in a state where the passenger door or the rear seat door is open.

Safety method for passenger of vehicle

Disclosed are device and method for driving a shift lever. The device may include a control unit that sets a travel distance of the shift lever when the shift lever is manipulated to a predetermined shift stage to be different than a reference travel distance of the shift lever, which is a travel distance of the shift lever when the shift lever is manipulated to shift stages other than the predetermined shift stage. The device may further include a driving unit which restricts a travel of the shift lever or moves the shift lever depending on a setting of the control unit.

A pedal assembly protects a driver, in which a pedal armis prevented from pivoting to a driver and forced to pivot forward away from the driver in a collision or a rear-end collision, so that it is possible to maximally preclude an injury of the leg of the driver due to the pedal arm

A shift lever for an automatic transmission improves a shift manipulating feeling and simultaneously reduce a rattling noise by preventing noise generated due to contact with a rod after manipulating a push button. The shift lever for the automatic transmission may include a rod movably provided inside the shift lever in its longitudinal direction, a push button vertically provided to the rod, an operating portion provided between the push button and the rod, and having a supporting portion at which an installation hole is formed and a slant portion, and a damping unit coupled to the installation hole, and provided between the rod portion and the supporting portion to absorb and reduce vibration of a power train transferred through the rod and vibration due to a road surface.
