System and method for intelligent vehicle gearshift in carwash

A method comprising:

• detecting, by a processor of a vehicle, a vehicle engagement with a conveyor pulling system associated with a car wash facility;
• obtaining, by the processor, information associated with a foot pedal position of a foot pedal and a gear selector position of a gear selector from a first sensor and a second sensor, responsive to detecting the vehicle engagement with the conveyor pulling system;
• verifying, by the processor, that the foot pedal is in a released position and the gear selector is in a neutral position based on the information;
• and
• causing, by the processor, the gear selector to remain in the neutral position while the vehicle is engaged with the conveyor pulling system, responsive to the verification.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having instructions stored thereupon which, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to:

• detect a vehicle engagement with a conveyor pulling system associated with a car wash facility;
• obtain information associated with a foot pedal position of a foot pedal and a gear selector position of a gear selector from a first sensor and a second sensor, responsive to detecting the vehicle engagement with the conveyor pulling system;
• verify that the foot pedal is in a released position and the gear selector is in a neutral position based on the information;
• and
• cause, based on verifying that the foot pedal is in the released position and the gear selector is in the neutral position, the gear selector to remain in the neutral position while a vehicle is engaged with the conveyor pulling system.
