i drive a truck for a living, and when I was taught to drive manual by a
commercial instructor, you are never to remain out of gear at any time..
if your breaks fail, the engine can always work as a break, and it is
dangerous to be loose in neutral in traffic.. now of course, trucks are
different, but the logic is correct.. neutral is for shifting between
gears.. your automatic is always in gear, so should your manual..
