You guys take the drivers test with automatic gears? :blink:
What do you do if you're out of the country and get a rental car? Most of these have manual transmissions. At least the ones I've been in. Besides, it's a hell of a lot more fun driving manual :D
As for parallell parking, do like the others said. Line up with the car in front of the pocket, turn the wheel all the way, reverse the car. I usually keep backing untill I'm at an ~70 degrees angle from how I started. Then work the wheel the other way and slide in. If you find out something went wrong, start over.
And be very careful about cars that are coming down the road while doing this.
