Carjackers Fail to Steal a Manual Car Because They Do not Know How to Shift It

Despite the fact that today cars equipped with manual transmissions become obsolete and get replaced with more advanced automatic models, it still can be useful to know how to drive a stick shift, especially if you plan to steal a manually shifting car. And a recent story from Canada proves this point.


According to the news report, the story took place in Toronto in late November, when two teenagers tried to steal a car from a man, preliminarily threatening him with a gun to get his keys and drive away. Everything was going according to plan until carjackers got inside the car.
