If you move the selector to the left from Drive, it's in Manual mode. It will hold the gear to redline until you shift. If you don't realize your are in M mode, and are also clueless about transmissions like my wife was, you can drive around in 1st all day long... Fortunately, my wife at least had the good sense to pull over and call me after a couple miles. It could have been much worse.
