I used to drive a Volvo, so have done the indicator switch before. I still occassionally do the wrong side for absolutely no reason. When I drove my Mum's VW for a week I got it right about 90% of the time.
yeah the mrs had a ford that was the oposite as well. Try driving 2 cars with different handbreak locations. The amount of times I start the manual without putting the clutch in (or go to press an imaginary clutch on the auto) is insane.
I’m currently driving 2 cars, 1 with auto handbrake and one with manual. I’ve tried to drive with the manual handbrake still on more than once
why isn’t the car moving?! What’s that odd noise?
lol yep done that one too. The auto takes its handbreak off as soon as you put it in drive or reverse. The manual very much does not.
