People who have failed tests on the following faults may benefit from driving an automatic.
Moving off under control - Faults causing rough moving away, stalling or rolling back on hills.
Usually caused by poor balance or co-ordination of clutch, accelerator and handbrake.
Gear Faults - Failure to select, wrong selection, coasting, looking down at the gear lever or poor steering control whilst gear changing.
Manoeuvres - Control. - Failure to maintain co-ordination with foot controls to keep the vehicle moving slowly enough to obtain the steering accuracy required.
Progress - Avoiding undue hesitancy. - Waiting when it is safe to proceed at junctions and roundabouts. When caused by lack of ability to move away quickly enough or the lack of confidence in being able to move away without stalling even though a gap is clearly safe to proceed in.
Using an Automatic vehicle basically eliminates the above faults.
