Its best to not really shift the car down from second to first while moving , unless your speed is only around 10mph.
In stopping I only down shift once the car is almost at a stop (from 5th-1st etc.) to save wear and tear on the clutch and tranny.
Its a lot easier to replace brake pads, then a clutch or tranny.
Down shifting should only be done when really its really required or driving the car hard.
