Are More and More Learner Drivers Considering Driving Lessons in an Automatic?
The short answer: Yes.
As automatic cars become increasingly reliable and technologically advanced, more learner drivers are choosing automatic driving lessons over manual. But why is this trend growing so quickly?
The Future Is Automatic- and Electric
It’s inevitable that in the not-too-distant future, most of us will be driving electric vehicles. EVs are classed as “automatic” because they have no gears and only two pedals. This means that anyone who passes an automatic driving test will be fully prepared to drive an electric car.
Why Learners Are Switching to Automatic
At ProCoach Driving School, we’ve seen a surge in learners opting for automatic lessons. Here are some common reasons:
- Many learners previously tried manual lessons but didn’t enjoy the experience.
- Manual lessons are often chosen due to peer pressure or advice from parents, rather than personal preference.
- Coordinating clutch, gears, and gas while making road decisions is challenging for many learners.
Manual vs Automatic-The Big Debate
Online forums are full of discussions comparing manual and automatic driving. Opinions about this vary. However, one thing is clear: automatic cars require less coordination. This gives drivers more time to focus on road safety.
Key Advantages of Learning in an Automatic
- No clutch or gears–less stress and easier control
- Hill starts made simple–no rolling back
- More time to concentrate-on the road
- Relaxed driving experience, especially in heavy traffic
- Hands on the wheel more often
- Better traction-no coasting
