Consequently, cars would roll backwards and collect at the bottom of steep hills, their owners unable to master the art of the throttle and clutch. These cars would eventually be abandoned by their owners, and soon the bottoms of steep hills were so clogged with abandoned manual transmission cars that no other cars could pass.
Thankfully, the advent of the automatic transmission meant that the free world no longer needed to fear steep hills and could completely forget the arcane art of the standard transmission.
Heh...anyway, you'll do fine. People who can barely tie their own shoes learn how to drive cars with manual transmissions.![]()
