And where are you from? And how old? Not “do you” but just if you know how.

I’m in the US, mid 30s and can (and do) drive a manual transmission.

    Southern Europe, 34. I only know how to drive with manual transmission (I tried an automatic city car once, and I literally couldn’t exit the parking spot). I’m too used to control the car with the clutch. I should learn though, because I use car sharing services, and they are progressively replacing their cars with automatic transmission ones.

      This is fascinating to me, I’m curious what happened as to why you couldn’t leave a parking spot. Were you trying to back out or pull forward out of the spot?
