I wonder what would happen if I posted it on a conservative car forum like the Honda Fit forum... They would probably REALLY hate me

haha nice. Oh and stability control goes all the way off if you hold the left button for 3 seconds.

By that logic, every single professional driver in the F1, WRC, D1GP are all amateurs for using tiptronic. Every car using any form of AT transmission is considered shit, including ferrari's and lamborghinis.

Yeah, makes perfect sense.

Who openly admits wanting to be part of a super elite, manual-driving, cool kids club?

Reminds me of this one time I brought my Civic in for service. It's automatic, but it has an aftermarket shift knob and boot (no, no, I did it because it looks cleaner; don't get your panties in a bunch, elite MT'ers). Some teenage kid between 14-16 got a peak inside and instantly shouted in the most awe'd, "LOOK MOM!" voice, "AW MAH GAWD! IS THAT A STICK SHIFT?!?!?!?"

And for the record, I can drive manual. Circumstances just limited me to this AT at the time of purchase.

We all know the risks and we all know that we should be safe, but let's not turn this video into a hate fest while we see much more irresponsible driving everyday on the streets (and maybe even do it ourselves for some of you).

Just like that picture above ^
I've received no tickets ever and I don't need to knock on wood because I'm a safe driver.
Hey after posting a video like that on a public forum what else to you expect. Im not gonna say Ive never driven dangerously on a public road lol I just dont document it.

if you drive like this on the streets i hope your car gets impounded so you dont put other people at danger anymore.
blah blah blah, no one cares about your old peeping tom opinion. you think the video was posted so he could hear some grumpy old loser tell him to drive safer next time? "driving like crap is irresponsible" "and you should always come to a complete stop at a stop sign" (said in a really soft annoying voice is how i imagine you sound) "

As a mod, I'm going to give you both a warning.

Don't mind having debate, but you guys are crossing the line. EVERYONE has right to post their OPINIONS! If you don't like their opinion, that doesn't mean you can personal attack that person. When you post those kind of replies again, I'll be gladly ban hammering you guys.

If you can't reply back maturely, don't reply.
