Automatic overdrive on or off. Your automatic transmission will use overdrive gear when it is appropriate, but you may turn off overdrive when you are traveling on icy roads, or other situations when you may not want your car to use overdrive.
I have never turned mine off in 10 years.

Over Drive Off

It means overdrive is turned off. This is a good thing to do when pulling a heavy load. If it is flashing or the light is on and you didn't turn it on, you probably have a transmission problem, go to a specialist as soon as possible.

Over Drive is turned off. This will be Ok for most city driving, but once you drive at the highway speeds, it would be wise to engage it to the on position for fuel economy. If it is a floor shift automatic trans, there should be a button to push to activate it again. Check the owners manual for more info

You're joking, right? Better get out that owner's manual, Quick!
O/D is the overdrive on your transmission. It's a good idea to leave it 'on' for normal driving, and turn it 'off' for uphill stretches or towing.

Overdrive off, there's usually a switch or button that manually allows you to turn it on and off, for city or highway driving.
