Everyone has given up on trying to teach me to drive a standard transmission.
They don't understand that I don't read minds and will do exactly what they tell me and nothing more. I follow directions very well, but you can't leave out any of the steps.
Like when they say now push in the clutch. I do just that. and it is rolling towards a deep ditch and they YELL put on the brake we are almost in the ditch.
I cried. I said, you didn't tell me to put on the brake, you are the instructor, I was waiting for your instructions.
