My parents insisted I learn on a manual, and while I didn't appreciate it at the time, I do now.
The regional DMV office where I took my driving exam had the most notorious parallel parking setup in the state. It was two traffic cones next to a very large, 3 1/2 foot diameter log (representing the curb) and was on the side of a circular cul-de-sac. So not only did you have to account for the curvature, if you got too close to the "curb", you were gonna have a very bad day lol.
If you're wondering: I nailed it (they let you practice after hours which helped).
What does manual transmission have to do with parallel parking?
Nothing other than increasing the difficulty for a novice driver. Mostly it's me going on a tangent and reminiscing about defeating that fucking log lol.
From my experience it's a lot easier to drive slowly just woth the clutch instead of the gas pedam
Absolutely. Clutch control is super useful.
