Can you push a car that's in park?

Short form: No.

The Parking gear locks the drive tires (4 wheel drive locks all 4). It's stronger than the breaks. Those tires will not roll.

Neutral disconnects the drive tires allowing them to roll with no relation to the engine activity. This will be the easiest gear for pushing.

Other gears will also also allow pushing but with resistance. The automatic transmission will be engaged and convert your motion into rotational motion of the engine.

If a car stalls when pushing the accelerator, the car may be in park. The car may also be in neutral if the car stalls and does not move. A very dirty fuel filter or a faulty fuel pump could cause that condition also.

Just put the key in the ignition and turn it like you would to start it. Once the key is in the on position just apply the brake to shift. If you have a manual transmission you can push start it, ive never heard of push starting an auto tranny car
