Can you drive manual?
Tried it for the first time today, pulled off a smooth transition once out of the three times I attempted it.

由l Beanie l编辑： 7/6/2015 7:45:07 AMIn the UK, taking your test in an AUTOMATIC is last resort failure of a driver. Not many people learn to drive auto here, unless they first failed to learn in a manual. It's extremely uncommon to take your test in an automatic car. Even if someone wants an automatic, they'd learn manual, do their test manual, and then buy an automatic.

1 回复In my cars that had manual transmissions, I really appreciated it when the vehicles performance allowed the manual transmission to enhance the overall driving experience. For example, I loved my 6-speed manuals in my little 4-cylinder sleepers, I adored the 4 speed in my 1970 Oldsmobile 442. But now that the two cars that I own have no real benefit from a manual (a SUV-Crosssover and a small 5-door hybrid), I don't see any benefit or reason for the inclusion of a clutch and manual transmission. I never got a lot of "fun" out of my old pickup with a "3 on a tree" shifter. I have personal preferences that I place in either transmission, and my choices are based on the vehicle itself and how I am going to drive it. Neither is inherently and always "better", and each has its place in my driving.

I learned and took my test in a manual 2001 Audi A4 that I bought a while back, definitely bothersome to learn the basics of the road while worrying about shifting down from fifth into reverse on accident ._. Tons of fun now that I can do it well, especially being able to so easily control my descent on hills without using breaks.

2 回复My -blam!-ing face when 'Murrikans are too -blam!-ing lazy to change gears themselves, a feat so simplistic and effortless even I can do it.

3 回复Only 48% manual? Wow. Probably >95% of people here in the UK pass their driving tests in manual cars. Never owned an automatic, I've driven a couple but I think I'd find it boring.
