When in Park - lift the stalk UP to go in REVERSE. Push the stalk DOWN to go FORWARD.
I think people get confused by the PRND on the screen and think that they need to to push stalk down one notch to go in reverse.
It might be better if Tesla changed the indicator to RPND instead of PRND. People are used to the mechanical shifters of ICE vehicles and forget that Tesla's are electronic. You get used to it quickly but someone new driving the vehicle could make a mistake, pull the lever down one notch thinking they are putting the car in reverse, look behind them and hit the accelerator, only to find out they put the car in DRIVE and possibly hit something by accident.
How about something like:
R
N P<
D
Or some way to represent that horizontally ...
..v
..P
RND
