no
No, you cannot legally drive a manual transmission vehicle in the USA with an automatic license. You need a manual transmission endorsement on your license to do so.
nope
Usually it's the other way around. There's one license that covers manual AND automatic transmissions. And one that is only good for automatics.
you must take a manual driving test and then you will be able to submit your licence to the DVLA to have the new category added.
not until you get your full license
I think it depens on what country you live in, I live in Norway, here you can take your license with an automatic, BUT you cannot drive manual cars. i think this rule goes for most countries. I recommend take it with manual and you can drive both.
No such stats are really available. The majority of them are still manual, though.
you can get it with manual or automatic.
It could have either the automatic or manual transmissions
