I think your transmission was slipping and couldn't lock onto a gear. If it happens again while driving, try putting the car into neutral and rev it a little bit and then put it into drive, It should grab the right gear this time. That was my experience with my buddie's auto Talon. He tends to.. do hard launches lol. Plus one time, we were driving about 45m/h and he accidently put the car in park and I heard the scariest grinding ever. Right after that, it would be stuck on one gear, so I sat in the drivers seat and tried it out. I think maybe when you shut the car off, it gave your transmission time to catch the right gear, so that's why it started working after.

If it happens again though, put it into neutral and pull over to the side of the road. Leave it in neutral and rev it a little bit, and then put it into drive and let it idle to see if it moves forward. If it doesn't, repeat the steps again and it should work :)

I Parked The Car And Drove My Honda.
