A shift lever assembly includes plate having a plurality of intersecting slots formed therein, including fore-and-aft extending directional gear slot and a transverse extending neutral slot. The neutral slot has a recess formed on one side thereof. A lever has a movable shaft received in and guided in the slots. A latch member is engagable with the shaft to releasably hold the shaft in the recess and prevent inadvertent movement of the shaft from the neutral slot into the directional gear slot. A shaft spring is biased to urge the shaft away from the directional gear slot. A latch spring is biased to urge the latch member towards the recess so that the shaft, latch member, the latch spring and recess cooperate to deter inadvertent movement of the shaft in a direction generally parallel to the neutral slot and out of the recess and out of the neutral slot. The latch member is pivotal away from the recess by the shaft when the shaft is moved away from the recess and in a direction generally transverse to the neutral slot, to thereby permit movement of the shaft in a direction generally parallel to the neutral slot and out of the recess and out of the neutral slot.
