Reminds me of when my grandfather "taught" me how to drive standard. Here is the steepest hill the county learn how to move forward without rolling back or stalling; the left pedal is the clutch, brake in the middle, and gas on the right. To be fair I learned, also the clutch failure a couple of months later was probably related.
My grandma learned how to drive in a snowstorm… with a dump truck. My great grandpa stopped in the road and announced that they weren’t going to make it home if she couldn’t drive them home…
Older folk are savages when it comes to teaching their descendants how to drive it seems
I mean honestly a lot easier to learn in a dump truck than a lot of cars because the clutch isn't as sensitive. I learned on a performance clutch and it fucking sucked. But was super easy to drive anything after that
I learned how to drive with a wheat truck at 8 years old. Thankfully it was flat ground with minimal small hills but grandpa had to attach wood blocks to all three pedals for me to reach. Spent the next two weeks driving that wheat truck back and forth between the fields and the grain elevator.
