How do I learn to drive stick?

Question

how do i learn to drive stick shift cars? Is it easy and fast to learn?

Answer 1

Dead easy. 95% of cars here in the UK are manual gearbox, much better that auto. If you pass your driving test in a manual car you are licensed to drive manual or auto, but if you pass in an auto you are only licensed to drive auto.

Answer 2

You learn by having someone (who is calm) teach you. I would watch someone do it a lot first, then try it yourself in an empty parking lot with someone responsible. It is easy once you get the hang of it. Just don't get discouraged it takes a while to get it down to where you are comfortable.   Good Luck
