You are right there Batts !! I was taught to use the gears too, then you should be in the right gear to pull away again.I thought it was an offence to not park with the rear reflectors facing oncoming traffic?

I notice when driving the wife's automatic Focus that the brakes have to be used a lot more than with a manual , if you take foot off throttle it does'nt slow down as quick.

Another couple of things I notice these days :-

1) I was taught not to double park, as in , parking opposite a car on the other side but theres so many cars I suppose it can't be avoided .

2) Also to give way to heavier vehicles coming up a hill , don't think many bother these days .

3) And whats more annoying than giving way to someone and they sweep past without even the briefest sign of a thank you .
I always give way to a heavier vehicle, (even if it is my right of way), I know who wil loose if i don't :(

Self preservation.

 
I sat my test in Swindon in 1988 and the Magic roundabout was fairly new. Examiner took me on it during rush hour and after 25 mins of a 40 min test I had time to do 3 point turn and emergency stop before driving back to the test centre to be told that I had passed! Awesome roundabout.
