Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Adele should drive the car alone and circle a large parking lot a few times to practice shifting gears, using the clutch, and stopping suddenly. This will allow her to focus on the mechanics of driving a standard transmission without any distractions or pressure from others in the car or on the road. Once she feels comfortable, she can start practicing on quieter streets before moving onto the highway. Bringing along friends or having them follow behind her may cause unnecessary distractions and pressure. Buckling her seat belt is always a must but it doesn't directly address the issue of practicing driving a standard transmission.
