      I'm in Italy, more specifically in Rome, and Rome is the city with the highest concentration of cars on the road in Italy. We learn to drive ONLY with manual transmission cars and we learn to drive in traffic, even in the first lesson. Every car used for teaching is supplied with clutch and break even on the front passenger side, so the teacher can help you if you are near to kill or hit someone/something. Learn to drive manual is easy, and most important, allows you to drive every car. Stop this laziness and learn how to drive properly.

As for the US, it's more like distracted driving. But yeah, keep in mind, these are just some facts, I don't think there is enough research done about this.

    “Clutch is the pedal, right”. Honestly, I remember my first time learning to drive stick shift. I did it in a parking lot, not out on the roads. I practiced for about 30 minutes constantly stalling. At one point I finally got it and tried real roads, which I surprisingly didn’t stall on my first couple of times. I’d say I eventually got the hang of it and my only enemy would be hills. I am never at a 100% consistency rate of not stalling when I am stopped at an uphill intersection. No matter how much I try to keep the revs at a reasonable amount with slow and good clutch control, I will stall here and there. I honestly think it’s a good idea these drivers are learning to drive stick shift. It’s a skill in life that you may need to know if there’s ever an emergency.

    • @rosieapplelemontart
      @rosieapplelemontart 2 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      You don't need to be in gear or using clutch control when you're stopped. If you stop for a short while put the clutch and brake pedals all the way down. If you're stopped for a long while put the handbrake on and take the car out of gear. Clutch control is for moving slowly like in a traffic jam or parking, not for waiting at the lights. Using clutch control when stopped will wear out the clutch and you'll be revving unnecessarily.

      I had some trouble my first couple times, my dad didn't explain how the clutch worked properly so I thought it was an on/off thing! Didn't help that my first attempt once he explained it properly was on a used Volvo we were test driving, and it needed a new clutch bad, the whole range was only about 1/4 inch of pedal travel. I drove first and he blamed the stalls on my bad driving, then we switched and he immediately stalled!

      This is the problem when you have a country that allows people to drive manual cars on the road after passing in an Automatic. Even the instructors are lax. 90% of countries you must pass a manual test first and they never put you anywhere near traffic the first day.

    as european that was trying to learn to drive when i was 17 i was used to shifting and everything from a pitbike so it was pretty new to me that i have to let out of clutch basically completely.
    context: in pitbike you have to add gas while letting go of the clutch and balance it then let go of clutch all the way, in car you just have to let go of clutch and then add gas.

      So that there's more stress on the drivers. Remember, this is BUZZFEED. A calm unstressed subject wouldn't be nearly as entertaining as a stressed one. Now if your actual objective is to teach how to drive a stick shift, then go to a nice flat unpopulated area and go for it. But that wasn't buzzfeed's objective after all.

I learned 3-on-the-tree, and it doesn't have power steering either, but I've only ever driven a floor shifter once. Would definitely like to try it again...but maybe in a parking lot, definitely NOT in traffic 😂
