Go read the link I posted (and there are more than that single incident, just here). People are so bad that they need to bribe examiners and probably justify it to themselves that well they CAN operate the car (turn, stop, go) and NEED to drive. Examiner are likely lax for the same logic, even without the bribes.

anybody bad enough that they'd have to bribe their way to a license wouldnt be able to drive, period. AT vs MT doesnt matter in these cases.

Now if you add the complexity of the clutch (starting on a hill), gear selection (being at the right rpm for merging, etc...), plus the stress of the exam, more people WILL be filtered out. Some would even give up before even trying (at least around here). And this would be ultimately beneficial.

Hill start? that's a test of coordination.
gear selection? anybody who has ever ridden a bicycle knows the basics of shifting. thats all the practical knowledge they need for everyday driving.
stress of the exam? puh-leez...
give up before they try? meh. they'd more than likely bribe someone...
