if your going 60.... there is a lock to prevent you shifting in a to LOW of a gear.
for exmaple: downshifting from 4th to 3rd? someone might miss and shift into 1st. if your going 60, 1st gear tops off at 29mphs. i wonder wat will happen to you car if you shift into 1st instead of 3rd.
so there is a lock there to HELP PREVENT not stop completely from downshifting into a wrong gear.

Go back to grade school you negro...
i believe only first gear has a lockout. i have downshifted to third, but i was only going about 55 mph. anymore than that would have jolted the car alot or required some careful rev-matching.
i don't think any other gear has a lockout, even reverse doesn't have a lockout

If everyone were like you, you would have gotten an answer of "No, retard. You have to drive around in 5th gear until you coast to a stop. Only then can you downshift."
