Ten minutes of traffic doesn't seem like very much. I drive 25 miles each way and sometimes every bit of that is in stop and go traffic. And what about people who have physical disabilities that make it difficult to drive a stick?

I don't understand the elitist attitude about driving a manual, especially when all sports cars are going to be automatic soon. Automatic, because race car? It's coming .
