When I taught my wife, she was so paranoid about stalling at a stop light or sign, and making the people behind bet mad. I just told her, if they are impatient, that means they don't recognize the car is a manual, and probably can't drive it themselves so screw them and take your time.
@No1sonuk
If anyone tells you they've never stalled a manual, they've either never driven one, or they're LYING!
@elianhernandez2115
Who else’s dad just yelled at them until you got the hang of it 😂😂
@Partyaap050
The secret to never stalling is flooring it while slowly releasing the clutch. Source: dude trust me
@brandensmith7703
Drive manual till it's automatic.
@slowspecv69
Key to never stalling when starting. Rev to red line, then dump the clutch 👍
@christianmontano2361
If you get the first gear the rest of the gears are easy
@alextowers3564
The simple trick that I was taught was that when you hear the engine juddering and feel you're about to stall, dip the clutch all the way in, set more revs and slowly bring the clutch up again. I don't use it now but it was very useful in my first few lessons.
@robinp.1362
For me as a German it is weird to call an automatic a "normal car".
@Fmandan77
I'm 45, my first car was a manual and I've owned them all my life. I remember the stress of being stopped while on in incline and knowing I'd roll back some before I could get the clutch engaged -that was stressful as a new driver. I think this video is actually a great idea given how many young people don't know how to drive a stick. Well done!
@ZombieByte
I initially learned to drive on an automatic car and always thought of driving as one of the most dull, lackluster activities that would almost put me to sleep with boredom... i then moved in with someone who had a manual and taught me to drive stick, i am now attending automotive repair classes so i can learn how to keep cars running and are looking to buy a manual car for myself because this makes driving fun!
@paulamoors
I am 75.. someone gave me a manual yesterday, so…never driven one before but very excited to have a car again.
@TheDonYG
Respect from all hoods. Pray for my friend, hes ok, but Im going to be practicing in his car so.
@Createdifyable
I have never driven a manual ( I plan on getting one) and have seen multiple video's on how to drive one and your video is by far the most thoroughly explained and demonstrated. Thx a lot. Edit: 4 years later and I have been driving a manual for 2 years. Some of the most fun I've ever had :)
@ravenglenn6473
maybe its more fun to drive, but its also way harder to steal
@DarkSplash99
Biggest tip Find the sweet spot and lead with the clutch, once you find the sweet spot the car won’t stall but be able to move forward by itself from here you hit the gas slowly while at the same time releasing the clutch; for people who learned to drive autos first like me and are right handed and footed, really really think about using the clutch; the gas /right foot movement is already implanted in your muscle memory but you have to concentrate to Learn to use your left foot and think about it hard, e.g. lifting weights and thinking about the muscle you’re training (hence lead with the clutch) this helped me a lotttt when I learned
@Ryan-rz6jd
How do i get to a parking lot without knowing how to drive a manual
@Slooby
Just did my second lesson Sunday. Third lesson this Sunday coming. I have to do 50 hours before I can go for my provisional licence here in Australia and I've already started driving up to third gear but man watching these videos helps. It's so anxiety inducing I just wish there were bumper car type roads where I can just buy my own manual and figure it out hahahaha
@Professor-Goo
Thank you for this video! My wife is purchasing a '20 370z Nismo (I've convinced her to purchase a manual, for all the obvious reasons), and doesn't know how to operate a manual transmission...your content has reinforced her enthusiasm about this decision, and given her an easily accessible reference on operating the exact same vehicle. Thanks again!
