>The same is true of an automatic transmission on a San Francisco hill. I have always thought that if you learned how to drive in San Francisco, you would have little trouble driving just about anywhere! :)
Hmmm, never had that much problem driving an automatic in San Francisco. It would have to be a pretty steep hill.
>By the way when I do drive an automatic on a San Francisco hill, I use my left foot for the break and my right for the gas. With a manual transmission you use the handbreak and then a bit of gas and clutch as you let out on the handbreak. Also, never get close to anyones rear bumper on a hill. You might be sitting together before you know it! ?)
So you got hand, eye and feet coordination going on here. :-)
You can control how far behind you are from the car ahead of you, but you can't control the car behind you.
The American Republic will endure, until politicians realize they can bribe the people with their own money.
