So I was wondering how many people can drive manual transmission. I have only driven those, but I know plenty of people who have no idea how stick shift works.

I learned to drive a stick shift back when I first learned to drive, but I haven't driven one in so long that I'm pretty sure I've forgotten how.

I have no idea how anyone wouldn't know how to drive an automatic. BTW I drive both I prefer manual but mostly drive automatics.

I'm not that good with Manual Transmission (read: the only vehicle my family owns that has Manual transmission is an '82 Ford F-100 Custom that has a very shaky engine and transmission).
I usually only drive Automatic.

I can't drive a stick at ALL I hate driving to begin with and adding a pedal only makes it worse.

I really cant do manual. All the vehicles my family owns are autos. I've tried stick a few times, I got the basic idea down, but putting it into use, another story. I can do it in a parking lot (kinda) but I dont know if I'd wanna try on a public street  |

It suprised me when I learned that manual cars were less common in America, nearly everyone learns to drive in a manual over here.
I think I'm right in saying that it's only in the past 10-15 years that automatics have become more popular.
