    I can drive and automatic with my left foot on the steering wheel and right foot on the pedals.

    And when I can't, I drive with one or two hands on the steering wheel.

    My little ranger is a stick so it's the left hand but my monster truck goes off a whim. Mostly left.

    When driving on city streets I usually have my left hand on the wheel and right hand on the stick.

    When on the freeway I hardly ever touch the stick (unless there is traffic), and I drive with my right hand. My left hand sits on the arm rest or wherever.

    i'm not aloud to drive yet
    but i have driven before, my mom's car stalled not to far from the house, my dad wasn't home but his car was still there. So my mom pushed her car using my dads car, and i steered her car using BOTH hands; i was paranoid

    I don't have a license!

    Before my permit expired two years ago, I drove with both hands on the wheel, as I had never driven before and was nervous.

    My car is so tiny, I actually drive with my knees on the bottom of the wheel, and have my knees steer, unless I'm turing a sharp corner or something.

    When I was learning how to drive I always used both hands because it felt safer. Now that I am past that learning phase, I find it impossible to use both hands. I prefer to use my right arm, but I can bust out the left if I need to.

    You silly little man. Having a manual transmission doesn't add any speed whatsoever from a dead stop, which is the true measure of a car's acceleration. If you have a larger engine, which generally is the higher end of the speed spectrum, the higher RPM's that are allowed by a manual transmission are irrelevant anyway because most of a V8's torque (acceleration) occurs in the low RPM range. So basically, the only time you would need a manual transmission is in the instance where you need to downshift in order to pass another car (which is in no way representative of one car's speed over another... the manual car is in a lower gear which allows for drawing more power from the engine whereas the automatic is stuck in a higher cruising gear), or if you have a puny 4-cylinder that needs to climb to 6 or 7 thousand RPM in order to achieve any real power.

    I challenge anyone with a manual transmission and smaller engine to try to stack up against an automatic muscle car from the 60's in a drag race. Unless you're driving a Ferrari or a Lambo you're going to get rocked. All that low-end torque makes a manual transmission pointless. I've absolutely roasted a bunch of manual cars in my automatic Trans Am, and I have a third generation (1987), which isn't exactly the peak of their performance.
