One of the great things about driving a Volt is that with no special driving techniques you will still get 90 to 95 percent of mpg s and capabilities of the vehicle.
To start off just put it in D or L and take off!
You can drive at all speeds in either. Be sure to depress breakes slowly to get the regenerative breaking effect.
L is not actually a low gear and would be more accurate to call it C for City Driving.
In L the regenerative braking is more aggressive and the handling a bit different.
I use this rule of thumb when switching between the two for max MPG and performance:D for speeds of above 35 and L for below as well as stop and go traffic.
When breaking switch to L and slowly press break as needed.
