I've never heard of it being dangerous other than stalling and jolting into a car in front of you. But with the way cars are today I wouldn't be surprised...

When I first bought my car I had it in neutral and went to start it without putting the clutch in until I realized it had to be clutched in to start (all the older cars I was around prior to getting my Z would start in neutral without clutching in first, hence why I always made it a habit to check what gear I was in before starting the car lol)

My very worst habit is driving an automatic and instinctually pushing the clutch to the floor, only to find an extended brake pedal instead.
When I drive my gals car I must plant my left foot flat on the floor to avoid this.

Sometimes good ideas are independently arrived at.

Another habit I have when driving my chicks car is forgetting that my vehicle takes up the whole lane. I'm so used to being able to ride on either the left or right side of the lane on my bike, that I forget I can't do that in a car.
