If you feel that it's hard to put the car in first gear when downshifting sometimes, that's because you have to be almost to a complete stop or a complete stop. That to me means that first gear in general should be for almost stopping or stopping. When downshifting because I'm coming to traffic, I use second. When in traffic, I stay in second. If my car stalls, I go to first,but it rarely does. I would say downshift to first when you reach 5 or 6mph
