Automatic transmission cars also have what is called "creep" while the engine is running and the selector is in "D" for drive or another gear, the car will creep along even if your foot is not on the accelerator. Be prepared for that, keep your foot on the brake when shifting from park/neutral into a driving gear or it will lurch a little. Keep your foot on the brake at traffic lights etc.
