>>15121841
What? Where's "here"? I'm just saying, I've heard in the UK if you want to drive a manual car you need to take a manual driving test. In the states, at least where I'm from you just get your class D license and that's it.
>>
>>15121836
>>15121862

If you take your entire course and licence driving an automatic, you won't have the proper license to drive a manuel

This is a good thing if you don't want to die to kids fucking up their gear shifting.


Most people take the manual license even if they're going to drive an automatic because why not
>>
YOU WILL NEVER EVER FIND ANYTHING FOR THAT MONEY THAT RUNS
>>
>>15121859
American driving tests vary widely depending on the state and which company you take the test with. Most of them will fail people on very basic stuff and mos people take the test twice. But if you can drive a small passenger automatic car you can learn to drive a small passenger manual car easily, and you don't need to go through the system again if you only have your "automatic" license.
>>
>>15121867
It takes one day of driving with a dad or uncle or whoever to learn how to drive manual lol, assuming you already know how to drive an auto on public roads and have your license.

Certain people, sure
Some people struggle a lot, call them retards or whatever, but it's real. Why would I want them potentially fucking up the traffic?

If you want, compare road accidents to western europe(where it's stricter) and the US
>>
>>15121907
You could compare but I think the data would be skewed. I also don't think it's manual drivers who fuck up and let me tell you why, I only know a handful of people my age who drive manuals (18-21 age group) and those are the kids who actually enjoy driving and some what pride themselves on being competent enough drivers to handle the "exoticness" of a manual. It's the lazy soccer moms and timid young learners (on an auto) that cause stupid accidents and make traffic worse for everyone. I learned on an auto and didn't really have a proper chance to learn manual until I had already been driving for a bit, and other than the normal learning pains I picked it up relatively quickly and was able to be on public roads very quickly. Again, I don't think shitty drivers go for manuals because they're dumb anyway and just want to drive an easy auto. The people who learn manual want to learn because they're already good drivers.
>>
>>15121907
Also if you're struggling to learn manual, you're not gonna be on busy public roads off the bat. You'll be driving circles around an empty church parking lot on an afternoon or driving around your neighborhood late in the night until you can launch off without stalling.

Wait, wait, you Europoors need a separate license to drive a manual?!

Jesus, I get off /pol/ for one second and I still find reasons to laugh at you cucks, lmfao.

its true they need to do a whole different test for a "manual" license

Difference is that most cars in the US are automatics, while here in norway, most of them are manuals. Even newer cars. So it makes sense to learn manuals.
Literally everyone I know took a manual license, It's really a non issue here, where it would be annoying in the US.
There's no real 'pride' in driving a manual here. If you for some reason take an automatic course, you can easily change it later. The prices for a manual and automatic courses are the same
>>
>>15122484
>>15122474
Yes, and you're also 3 times as likely to get in an accident so there's that
>>
>>15121903
I dunno, I see cars for 600-800 all the time near me but I know near nothing about cars other than what I lurked here but I'm not sure what to look for becasue no one, not even people selling for 'normal' price refuse to allow for test drives where I am and the only things I know what to look for are burned transmission fluid, oil and tires.

There's no autotragic driving school cars in Germany. There's only one license and you can't get it without driving manual. It completely and utterly boggles my mind how this isn't normal for every country.

no its retarded all we have to do is walk into the dmv and do a regular driving test with an automatic or manual car and we walk out with the freedom to drive any car except semi trucks.

Majority of cars in America are automatics and Amazon hasn't quite gotten to selling and delivering cars yet so most don't accidentally buy a manual unless they are set on it. It is up to the consumer to learn on their own and if I recall correctly manuals don't really figure into US accident statistics becasue of that.

obtaining a manual license
"P" plates

>not getting a license that allows you to drive noth transmissions with no retarded restrictions such as "P" plates

like seriously what the fuck? dumbest shit i ever heard.

andthis right here"You're in favor of incompetent drivers being allowed to drive on the same public roads as you and your loved ones? I'm gonna laugh so hard when someone rolls backwards down a hill during his first drive in a manual and runs over your firstborn".

is fucking stupid. is the USA we actually practice in parking lots and such how to drive manual before going to dmv to get license and driving on the street that way we know how to drive normally by the time we get our license

if you need to go to driving school for that you are fucking scum considering you europoors have more manuals than us.

you have litteraly no fucking argument

>>15122998
I repeat, there's only one license here, you have to prove that you're capable of driving manual, then you can drive whatever you want.

We don't go to driving school because we need to, we do it because we have to. Granted, the 12x45 minutes mandatory driving lessons are retarded for someone who can already drive, but I'd rather make sure everyone with a license knows what he's doing that risk someone getting into a manual like "HURR DURR HOW HARD CAN IT POSSIBLY BE" and be a threat to anyone in his close vicinity.
