Are us soldiers required to learn how to drive manuals if they're ever stuck in a less advanced country. Seems like a useful skill if you ask me.

Hobohemian posted:Easiest way is to watch the RPMs and when it hits about 3 you can probably shift up, but there are several variables. Eventually you can just feel it. Nah, you should be somewhere in the main power-band of your engine, usually about 60-85% on the Tachometer, so on cars with a 7-8000 RPM redline, between 4000 and 6500.

If you live in a country where the market is over 90% automatics then yeah you'd prefer an auto. The rest of the world likes manuals though because driving is actually fun on roads that aren't twelve lanes wide, chock full of cars going 5mph and have curves and corners.

I drive with two feet if I'm in an automatic. Just feels natural and I've been doing it forever. I like that I can cover the brake pedal and reduce my reaction time in case I need to hit the brake fast. People always have dire warnings about how it's a bad idea and you'll panic and hit the gas but I'm not an idiot so it's not a problem.

Also you're prob trash at covering and are slightly activating the brakes and destroying your pads Also people behind you see your brake lights on and know you're an idiot If you're in a situation where you believe you'll need to brake or cover your pedal you lift your gas foot off and hover. No mistakes, same reaction, in fact, better because you're cruising or slowing at the same time!!

Driver licensing is a joke in the US. I kind of like motorcycle licensing though, it's good for natural selection. You literally drive around some cones for 10 minutes and get your endorsement. When I was doing my test, the guy in front of me was on a loving trike. After passing, you're legally entitled to buy a bike that can do 200mph. No other training or testing required.

But if you are over 3k RPM its a safe change as you won't gently caress it up unless you are going up a steep rear end hill. The other poo poo is if you wanna be accelerating like a proper man who knows what the gently caress he is doing.

If you do your driving test in a automatic here, you don't get a full license. I'm sort of envious of the lax us rules because my license cost me thousands of euros overall.
