second gear
Second gear is a reference to the gearing ratio in vehicles. It is the second speed setting in a vehicle's transmission system, typically used for slower speeds or for climbing steep inclines. Second gear provides a good combination of power and speed, allowing the vehicle to go faster than first gear but not as fast as the higher gears. It is commonly used for starting from a standstill on icy or slippery conditions as it reduces wheel spin.
