Cannot agree with this more! I wish more people drove manual rather than the other distractions that cause accidents on a daily basis. I can't even count how many times I've almost been rear-ended by women applying makeup in the mirror or countless other things.

TBH I don't find driving in heavy traffic any more burdensome in my manual 370z compared to my auto bmw x5. It's the difference of one extra pedal....Just my opinion though.

It was a bit tongue-in-cheek. I've seen manual drivers who drive like that. Regardless of transmission or vehicle type, too many people are paying attn to everything BUT the road.

You can have fun and drive an automatic. And it can be bothersome to be in 2hrs of traffic in a MT, like I was last week. Regardless, people should be paying attn to the road.
