Survival Tip #86
Learn to Drive Stick
It might seem like a pain, but it would be even more of a pain to be trapped with a perfectly good car you weren’t able to drive. Pretty poor way to lose your life in the Primal Age. So, learn to drive stick so that no matter what car you come across you won’t be hand cuffed.

Good point, yet luckily stick is the norm in the UK.
