    Muscle memory is a heck of a thing hey. I got a coffee at the drive through, used my right hand to put it in the cup holder so used my left foot to go for the break, my brain recoiled cause I guess it was expecting a clutch to go all the way to the floor. Looked down at the gear selector and there was a 3 second delay (though it felt like an eternity) where my brain goes “P? D?! the fuck is this, what do I do?” before it finally clicks and go “oh. Select D you idiot”.

    2 years we’ve had some form of auto car now, and for 10 months its been my primary daily driver.

      I’ve been in an auto for 10 years. Some days I still push the clutch in at the roundabout near home.
