Avoid stop lights at the top of a hill if the intersection is busy if you are at all shaky on the clutch engagement. As people have noted here before, people have a tendency to pull up closely to you at a red light

Hey, u might win the arguement since that person is not keeping distance and your car is a stick so it tends to roll back a little up hill. Happened to someone I knew (just in case you hit that car)

If you're on a hill, just engage the parking brake and then release it as you start to pull forward.
