Five minutes talking about how to operate a car, start it, drop the clutch and go onto some of the busiest freeways and intersections in a city of ~1 billion people.
See above. Not sure how you guys misinterpreted it as MT specific lessons, it was all pretty straightforward until you guys came in, driving school and drivers training is pretty interchangeable as far as I'm concerned. Many states require/recommend in-car training from an instructor. Not everyone wants to throw thousands of bucks into purchasing a garbage car, has access to "friends" willing to teach, or is willing to plunk down on a decent car and then learn on it for (unfounded) fear of breaking it.

The main problem is there are no schools anymore that teach it. You have to find local guys with beat up cars that run private ads on local classified sites. That's how I learned. That and PC sims lol

It's cool that some driver's training schools offer cars with manual, but I don't think it would be worth paying hundreds of dollars for someone who already has their license to retake driver's training just for the sake of learning manual.
