DSG, Direct Shift Gearbox (Direkt Schalt Getriebe) seems to be the next big thing in transmission technology.
It is described as a manual transmission but does not have a clutch pedal. So can you legally drive one with an auto license? In QLD when the BA first came out there was a somewhat celebrated case where driver with an auto only license was charged with unlicensed driving because his auto XR6 had a "manual mode". The magistrate threw it out fortunately and a short time afterwards a clarification was released by QPOL that "manual" means "has clutch pedal". But this only applies to QLD as each state has its own rules. So outside QLD is DSG auto or manual for the purpose of licensing? |
