Including me, so I tried to find some statistics to see if a manual was enough to focus on. I didn&#x27;t find much.<p>I found one Swedish study that looked at automatic and manual transmissions affect on young and old drivers&#x27; ability to turn left across traffic [1]. It found a manual had little impact on the young driver, and older drivers performed worse.<p>I&#x27;m not sure turning left across traffic is a large enough sample of driving for me to be satisfied.<p>[1] <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;acrs.org.au&#x2F;files&#x2F;arsrpe&#x2F;Why%20drive%20manual%20-%20automatic%20transmission%20improves%20driving.pdf" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;acrs.org.au&#x2F;files&#x2F;arsrpe&#x2F;Why%20drive%20manual%20-%20a...</a>
