My car is manual, and my work car was automatic, I've done this several times
I have an automatic, drove a manual for years and a few times a year I still need to drive a manual, but I've never really done this, aside from maybe a couple times the very first time I got my automatic.
What usually happens is I stall the manual once or twice forgetting to press the clutch while decelerating. Not that often anyways.
But maybe it's cause I learned on a manual, not an automatic
Changing back to a manual I had to remind myself to press the clutch while putting the car in gear with the engine running. And not just having the brake pedal pressed. But you get used to that quite fast with the awful grinding noise.
I find this terrifying. I drove a manual for 20 years and often switched to an automatic and never did it, and can't imagine how it would even happen. The pedals aren't that close.
I’m not understanding either. When I drove manual, I used the left foot exclusively for the clutch, and in an automatic, I don’t use the left foot at all.
Basically, monkey brain expects the left foot to meet with a pedal and will absolutely settle for the brake pedal if not reasoned with. I've done it a few times myself.
Is it monkey brain or lizard brain?
It's usually when I realize that my turn is "right there," and kind of an oh shit moment
