I'd guess that 80% of the cars in the UK are manual and therefore plenty of chances of being behind, infront and to side of of one.. and nothing unusual to report..
Most of our cars in the US are automatics, and morons like to make a game of getting as close as possible to the cars in front of them because they're not expecting anybody to ever roll backwards. OP thinks that putting the manual pattern on the back of his car will change that behavior so that he doesn't have to learn proper hill starts. But it won't.
