I lived in Oz for years - not many manuals when I was there (but I had one).
Ok then Driver 1 is driving down a road changing gear. A kid on a bike flies out in front of him from nowhere. Driver 1 has one hand on the wheel, one on the gear stick and a foot on the clutch.
Driver 2 drives down the same road and the same kid flies out in front of him.
Driver 2 has both hands on the wheel and no foot on the clutch.
Which driver is better placed to stop running the kid down?
Joe-90 kicks ass.

Joe, no one comes from nowhere.... They all come from somewhere... The kid on a bike will have come from a side road, driveway, footpath or other such place.... YOU as a driver are expected to note all possible hazards that you approach and should be looking for the unexpected. You should note parked cars and recognise that there may be the potential of a pedestrian to emerge from behind it and be ready, side junctions must be noted and their potential hazards.... you should be in the right gear to be able to deal with the unexpected should it happen and as such both of your hands will already be on the steering wheel..... Please give up driving now you are a hazard to yourself and other road users if you never remove your hands from the wheel.....How on earth do you turn corners?..... Learn to drive, Joe...Learn to drive
Joe.....Butt kicked....
