And teach them how to jump a car that won’t start and be sure they have jumper cables in the back of their car. I’m surprised how many people do not know how to do this. I suppose it’s now worthless to teach someone how to start their car with a manual transmission by popping the clutch while its rolling….

I’ve always had trouble getting the vehicle to roll fast enough with my foot out the driver’s door.

I have personally observed that teenagers don’t know to use doorbells.

A kid in America today is as likely to encounter a car with a manual transmission as he is one with a crank starter.
