I find it more dangerous to drive and automatic after driving my trucks all week. You pull up to a stop and instead of coasting, I prepare to downshift. Since it's an auto, the brake is the clutch and since we depress the clutch with quite a bit of speed and force, everybody in the car gets quite a jolt when the tires of the Impala screetch for about a second. If I drove that car in the snow and ice, it would be very dangerous,
