Now, I'm going to a driving school. I already got a tenporary license. I spent a lot of time for it because I'm trying to get a manual transmission car license. This kind of car is very difficult to control! (><) I have to use all hands and feet.
At first, my left hand operates the gears. Each gears have appropriate speed. I change the gear to higher one with increasing the speed. My right hand, of course always operates a handle.
Next, my left foot operates a clutch pedal. Clutch pedals connect engine and tires... maybe. (^^;) I don't understand well a structure of manual transmission car. In any case, if you pedal the clutch, the engine and the tires come apart and the car will stop. If you put off the clutch, the engine and the tires are connected and the car starts to run. My right foot operates an accelerator and a brake.
A driver have to do these all operations at the same time! You know, it's sooooo difficult. Now, Almost cars are automatic. This one is easy to operate.♪ But I feel manual car is easy to move than automatic one because I drove manual car everyday during summer vacation. I must get used to automatic car after get a car licence! (220 words)
