What I wonder about is the logic behind licensing. I think if I can take a test in an automatic, and then earn the right to drive stick even though I don't know how, something is wrong with the system. If it were up to me, I'd make two separate licenses/certifications for those skill sets: one for basically knowing how to steer a motor vehicle and obey traffic laws, and the other for doing the same in a vehicle with manual transmission, where you could get certified for one or both during the same exam.
