When I got my L's and then went to my P's I only had access to auto cars. And plus living on my own and studying full time driving lessons was the last thing I could afford. So I got my auto licence, but Service Tas went through a stage of making the mistake of giving out manual licences to those that only did the auto test. I was one of them.
A few months into my P's, my dad's girlfriend got a manual car, and took me out the back roads to learn. It doesn't take long to get used to. The hardest part for me was getting used to putting the clutch in when stopping, coz I'd driven Auto for so long, I wasn't used to it.
Now I can drive a manual fine. Best thing I did was to learn how.
