How To Drive Manual

In this video, I'm going to be showing you how to drive a manual transmission car. Now, to start with, you'll need your key, and to put it in the ignition. Check that you're out of gear by shaking your gear stick left and right, make sure it's in neutral.

Now, you want to turn your key, with the ignition on, this one's a beater, you have to give it a few seconds to warm up. You then start your car. The next thing, you want to push down on the clutch until it's all the way to the floor and select your gear which is first.

You want to be bringing your left foot up until it reaches the bottom point, which you'll feel the car wants to move. Just make sure your seatbelt's in and we're ready to go. Now, you bring your foot up to the bottom point, just touch the accelerator, just to get it moving and then bring the clutch all the way up and just use the accelerator to move.

You want to be pushing the clutch down every time you want to change gear, and just select through the gears as you drive off. They go all the way up to the fourth gear. Just changing down the gears when you want to slow down using the clutch and just the revs pick up, just change the gear again.

Just as you're slowing down, just changing down the gears using the clutch, and selecting first if you stop, and you really don't want to go down to first if you do stop, if you can avoid it, just use second. And then, just stop, just put it in neutral, and just pull up the handbrake. And that's how to drive a manual transmission car. .
