The generation of the start of automobiles has evolved greatly and brought enormous and heavenly change to transportation. Although, the denizens of Earth has been spoiled by the way automobiles are operated. At 1921 the Automatic Transmission was created, the scum that deteriorated the skill of driving. To this day, any individual could use a vehicle, as long as they can use their arms and legs. This would allow mentally deficient and insane individuals to operate a vehicle, causing crimes and acts of terrorism.

The Automatic Transmission allows the user to operate a vehicle with just the use of a steering wheel, an acceleration pedal, a gear selector, and a brake pedal. This type of vehicle can be used by anyone if they have any type of arms and legs. The only worry there is for the user is the navigation of the car.

In opposite to the Automatic Transmission is what's called, the Manual Transmission. The Manual Transmission consists of the following: a steering wheel, a brake pedal, an acceleration pedal, a clutch pedal, and a gear shift. This type of transmission requires the use of both hands and feet, as the operator needs to move the gear shift and press the clutch pedal at sequential times. If the clutch is operated incorrectly, the car goes into a state what is called "stall", in which the engine stops turning. This makes the automobile immobile until it has been started again.

The Manual Transmission often forces individuals who are mentally deficient or insane from using a vehicle equipped with that transmission. If all vehicles today are stripped of the Automatic Transmission and replaced with the Manual Transmission, this could reduce the amount of car accidents caused by people every year. This type of change acts as a safety measure for individuals who are mentally deficient to operate an automobile.

An older man driving an automatic car lost control and nearly killed my daughter who was inches away when he drove into a wall. He hadn't even seen her. The thing is he had lost control of it. He said he was trying to reverse or break and instead he shot forward hit the opposite haven't veered put onto a road and slammed into the wall of a house opposite. These cars are dangerous. It is easier for older people to continue to drive in automatics as they lose competency.

Autos were originally made for handicapped or people with the need of special assistance, but now more and more able bodied people are driving it, what's more is that they use their phones while driving. This kind of thing can hardly be prevented by law enforcement to test and drive, so we are better off banning auto so people can't easily get distracted from driving

The automatic transmission uses 5 times the amount of oil during it's service life than a Manual transmission .... they are enviromentally dirty & need to be removed if we are to really be green.

I think it's a sad day when the Shelby GT500 and new mid engine Corvette only come exclusive to automatic, same with Mark V Supra, and GT-R. Sports cars and manuals went together like peanut and jelly, but now any yahoo can just jump in one and think their Paul Walker (looking at you, Charger). Don't get me started on all that infotainment crap, too. I'm teaching my son stick shift in the next few years.

Our modern societies are facing a distracted-driving crisis brought on and exacerbated by the automatic transmission. Not only do I support outlawing, and/or banning automatic transmissions, I support outlawing, and/or banning automotive touchscreen infotainment systems and cruise control. May this petition gain all necessary signatures, and may this be just the beginning to safer roads for us all!
