Given the events like....
- The Ford bloke stuck in cruise control - Toyotas with sticky throttles In incidents like those above, the option of throwing the car into neutral does not occur at all for these people. It's my feeling that a manual driver may have more understanding of the actual car, vehicular dynamics and thus options for an emergency. Basically, I think manual drivers make better auto drivers. Just wondering what are others' thoughts are on an issue like this ? Hypothetically, do you think it should be mandatory that learner drivers must learn and then pass their test in a manual car ?
