You would think that without the need to learn how to use a clutch, more people in the UK would drive automatic cars. In fact this is not the case. The majority of British drivers choose to drive a car that has a clutch and manual gearbox.

Different manufacturers have ideas on what an automatic should be. It used to be that in an automatic car the gearstick layout was common with ‘Drive’ the selected mode to move the car forward. Other selections were ‘Park’, ‘Neutral’, ‘Reverse’ etc. With the advent of multi modes all this has changed and now all you need are three selections. ‘E’ for engage, ‘N’ for neutral and ‘R’ for reverse.

Another factor is that all automatics do not ‘creep’ or ‘pull’ when in gear. Multi modes are, in my opinion, safer to drive due to the fact that accidental movement either forward or backwards is minimal.

Semi automatics differ from automatics in that when you want to change gear you must select the gear you require by either going up a gear or by going down a gear. As with a fully automatic there is no clutch pedal.

Driving is not just about being able to control a motor vehicle. In order to be a safe driver it is important to have a good knowledge of both the theory and practice of driving and a well developed ability to observe all that is going on around you.
