Learning to confidently drive a stick shift
With
advancements in automotive technologies and a shift from rural to urban living,
there is less demand for learning how to drive a vehicle with a manual
transmission (“stick shift”). Australians are not required to learn how to
drive manual cars. As a result, many Australians never learn to drive this type
of vehicle.
However, there are advantages associated with manual stick shifts that are worth considering when you are about to begin studying for and gaining driving experience to get your driver’s licence. Here are a few of them:
However, there are advantages associated with manual stick shifts that are worth considering when you are about to begin studying for and gaining driving experience to get your driver’s licence. Here are a few of them:
- Makes the driver more aware of
the driving process = safer
- More driver control in off-road
or hazardous driving scenarios
- Typically saves on fuel
expenditures by delivering better efficiency
- Good skill for emergencies when
only a manual vehicle is available
- Simpler transmission than an
automatic & therefore less likely to malfunction
Learning to
drive vehicles with manual transmissions opens up employment opportunities that
are not available to those with automatic-only driving restrictions. You’ll
have to know how to drive a stick shift if you want to operate driver-oriented
vehicles like agricultural machinery, heavy equipment, semi-trucks, dump trucks
and race cars.
