You turned your car off on drive what should you do?

Turn the ignition key to "acc" to release the steering mechanism without starting the engine, shift the lever to park, turn the ignition key back to lock and remove key. If the car is at a full stop, nothing will happen to the transmission, so's long as it isn't done often.
