Abstract
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.
