v6 sport mode

i have a v6 automatic and just recently have been playing with the sport mode. i have always used it from a dead stop. my question is can you shift into it at any speed. if i'm cruising at 70-75 and wanna jump on it, can i throw it into sport mode safely and if i do at that speed would there even be any difference?

You can change into it. I go from D to manual all the time while in motion.

They're right...you can shift into sport mode anytime on the fly. When you shift, it will automatically shift into sport mode AND in the same gear you're in when you made the shift. It's seamless.
Shifting at speed changes modes, not gears.

I do this all the time as well. When i'm traveling at any speed and wanna jump on it, i throw it in Sport mode and downshift into a lower gear and off I go!
