    Some cars won’t start unless the clutch is pushed in. Some will. If you are in gear, it will push the car forward.

    The most complete and safest way for all cars is.

    Foot on brake. Clutch in. Put in neutral. Start car.

    That should work and be safe in all manual cars. It is likely the “correct” way for a driving test.

    Once you get to know a car, you might just use the brake and clutch and leave it in gear when starting the car.



  • Oh yeah. I totally agree that the source has its own objective. I wasn’t supporting their specific approach at all.

    You are right that the key take away is somene saying “I think my own idea, which I happen to be selling a book about, is great, here are some stats that I have crafted to support my own agenda”

    The point I was making was simply that people who care enough to try something, anything, with thought (like looking for a new methodology to try out) are likely to be more successful.

    Like a diet. The specific one doesn’t matter so much. It’s the fact that you are actually paying attention and making a specific effort.
