exsequar*facepalm*
So I just had my first go at trying to drive a stick shift. I need to learn really really well by two weeks from now, since I'm supposed to drive myself back to school (four hours!) in this car.
It went okay, but by the end there was a lovely burned-something smell coming from the engine. Oops?
How about everyone shares their horrifying first-time-driving-stick stories so I feel better, mkay?

Date: 2006-12-29 03:09 pm (UTC)If I had to drive a standard transmission to get my freely bleeding self to the HOSPITAL, I would die b/c I cannot do it. I can either concentrate on operating the car and making it go forward without stalling out OR I can concentrate on the road and not killing us all. Never both at the same time.
