Nakakatakot ba talaga ang automatic?

[tikling]

ito'y particular sa mga baguhan driver at lalo na sa mga babae.

sa mga iba lalo na sa mga nakatira sa city at yung ibang work at bahay lang, hindi siguro nila nababalitaan o nakakakita ng mga aksidente dahil sa automatic na car.

pero sa mga gaya kong nasa probinsya, gala at maramingggg kamag-anak, kaibigan at kakilala, madalas akong makabalita o makakita ng ganitong pangyayari.

nangyayari kasi, imbes na yung break ang maapakan, e yung gas, diin o sagad yung apak kasi nga magpreno sana kaya resulta, sobrang sirit ng car. nakakalungkot neto may personal na akong nasaksihan, yung isa co-teacher nya, patay kasi nasa harapan lang niya, yung isa naman, 2 anak nya, patay din kasi nasa harapan din. yung isa naman, nagpa-park, yung bunggo nasa harapan. mga personal na nasaksihan ko yan, di pa kabilang mga nabalitaan ko.

di maiiwasan kasi minsan yung mabigla ka, mag-panic, ma-block, etc kaya yung paa di na maintindihan kung saan ang apak.

magaling sa manual kasi kahit mabigla ka, instinct na dun sa left foot mo na apakan ng sagad yung clutch, so safe kahit silinyador maapakan mo.

kaya sa mga baguhang driver lalo na sa mga girls dapat manual na lang car nyu.

sana ang automatic pag tinapakan ng sagad yung gas inde sya sisirit ng takbo.

To answer the question, nakakatakot ang a/t pag magkaroon ng sua ito pero kadalasan puro driver errors yung iba.

Add geriatric drivers...

Also too many kamote drivers who don't deserve a license...

‘Pedal misapplication’ and older drivers - The San Diego Union-Tribune

PEDAL MISAPPLICATION
What: Stepping on the accelerator instead of the brake.

Who: It can happen to anyone, but pedal-error accidents by the elderly get the most attention.

Why: Experts say the mistake is most likely caused by a loss of mental and physical agility, either because of disease, medications or physical deterioration due to old age.

Solution: Preventive measures include refresher courses for senior drivers. The DMV requires re-examination of drivers reported unsafe by their physicians, health care providers, law enforcement officials, families or friends. That might include a driving test in addition to vision and written tests. The DMV suspends or revokes the licenses of those considered immediate threats.

This actually happened in our office. The guy is really, really, old. The first attempt to reverse, he hit the car a couple of meters away from him. He went forward then hit the garden on the sidewalk. This time, he went reverse at full throttle. So the same car he did hit earlier went meters away

Ang nakakatakot yun mga tangang Drivers.

I think this won't do... I mean, if I were in a hurry for some reasons this will be against me.

[sean-archer]

Nakakalunkot mga nangyayari ganyan. Lalo na may mga namamatay dahil dito. Kailangan talaga may gawin para kahit hindi man totally maiwasan, ay mabawasan ang mga aksidente na ganito.

Hindi ang pag gamit ng MT ang solusyon. If you follow the logic above, wag na rin tayo gumamit ng electric fan kase baka maputol daliri natin, pamaypay na lang, wag na rin water heater baka ma kuryente tayo habang naliligo.., magpakulo na lang ng mainit na tubig (I exaggerated)

Sa gobyerno, revisit nila dapat sistema nila sa pag release ng driver's license. Marunong nga ba talaga mag drive, (lalo na sa hindi ideal situation,) ang binigyan nila ng lisensya?

Sa car designers, ano Kaya ang pwede gawin para somehow, maiwasan ang pedal misapplication nato? Mahirap pero I'm sure may solusyon., pedal placement, gas cutoff, auto hard braking pag emergency ... I don't know pero I'm sure paraan.

Seriously?

Whether A/T or M/T, ang mas nakakatakot eh yung gumagamit ng sasakyan na hindi marunong magpatakbo. Kung baguhan na drayber at prone sa aksidente eh baka naman hindi nakapag driving school?

Makakadisgrasya talaga.

[CarWithGarage]

Kaya naimbento ang Forward and Backward Collision Mitigation dahil dyan. Ford Eve ata yung meron sa front and back Collision mitigation. Yung montero meron din pero front lang ata.. Sadly mga nasa top of the line variant lang ang meron.

Sana nga maging standard ang feature na ito sa lahat ng auto.

A few years ago, driving schools don't​ exist. Back when it was starting, it was very expensive since we had this thinking that "whatever they teach there, I can do it". So, why enroll my kid over there?

Coming from owner type jeep, I don't know how to teach someone using a manual car. I mean, how can both of us fit inside the driver's seat while the door is closed? Unless the other guy is like me who has a small body build.

I don't see why you say driving schools came about only recently because a lot of them have been in existence for more than 3 decades now (A1, Smart, Socialites) and there are other small ones. The driving school provides the vehicle, too (you can choose the type of car, preferably close to the one you would be using daily).

Also, while a lot of us may think we can teach our kid or relative how to operate a car, it's still different when it is a duly-licensed driving instructor who teaches how to drive since they also teach about traffic laws, etiquette, defensive driving, etc. Sorry but, when it comes to learning how to drive, I am not an advocate of "home study".

It was 30 years ago? I guess you're right, I was young then. How time flies... I never implied that I advocate home study about driving. I was referring to my relatives who back then​, doesn't want me to enroll in a driving school. I was in elementary​ when I started driving and I wanted to enroll when I was in highschool but they said, "what's to learn there?"

We had a book, came from LTO I think, and there I encountered for the first time about hydroplaning. Slowly, I learned about traffic rules and signs. It's embarrassing on my part, but I'm still learning about driving until now.

Now about my two grown-up kids, I made it a point for them to enroll​ in a driving school if they were to drive full time.

However, if I may digress, we are not yet rich so we can't buy another car. Rather, I prefer that my sons buy their own. I help them raise the money by taking a certain percentage, let's say 60% on my part then they raise the remaining balance.

not so much nakakatakot, as it is nakaka-inis...

i agree, the issue here is not the transmission per se but the drivers and the way the government corruptibly issue driver's licenses

Women more likely to mistake gas pedal for brakes, regulator says

NHTSA estimates that there are about 15 pedal misapplication crashes per month in the United States, and that the drivers in almost two-thirds of such crashes were women.

The agency speculated on several reasons women might be more likely to be involved in such crashes.

The incidents occur most often in parking lots, NHTSA said.

The agency also noted that women typically have "a poorer fit in their cars due to shorter stature, which may increase the likelihood of a pedal application error."

But male drivers should be warned before stereotyping women as bad drivers. NHTSA says men are more likely to be involved in an accident in general.
