My dad taught me to drive manual on a 60 degree hill, starting at the top. This was well before "hill assist"!
My pet peeve: Despite not allowing the teen to take his test again, the stupid place still charged us! Now I've got to try to call them to get our money back.sigpicSig by Bay, for my birthday.

Here, there's no difference in the license test; you test in whichever you can drive (or want to, if you know both) and your license is good for both of them. Obviously, if you only know automatic, you probably don't want to drive manual without someone teaching you first, but you don't have to test on it. I learned manual in an afternoon, many years after getting my license.

We don't have separate licenses for auto and manual. Then again, most people here -- to my knowledge -- tend not to think "oh, manual won't be any problem and I don't need to learn it". Many Americans who only know auto think manual is a lot harder than it is, and it scares them.
It scared me, until I was taught how to drive one, but it only took me a couple of hours to learn. I haven't driven manual in years now, because the clutch pedal gave my bad knee fits, but it was kind of fun when I did.Sum, ergo scribo...

Here you can drive both if you have a license for manual, but if you only have a license for automatic you can only drive automatic. Overall, most people who drive automatic are disabled in one way or another (or they're foreigners who only have a valid automatic license) and manual is the standard. A friend of mine recently started driver's lessons and the company she used had an automatic for the first few lessons, so it wasn't too overwhelming all at once and then depending on how confident they felt they would move to a regular, manual car. That's actually quite rare and none of us had heard of it before.Unmade Plans (WIP: 11/20):
