I'm not talking about driving in general, of course that's not gonna be a problem, but getting the car to move at all...why would you let somebody continue to test drive a car when they can't even get it to move? So then you try to pull into a busy road like you described, and you get your nose into traffic and then BAM you stall. What happens then?

Hahaha I was talking about like country roads at 2am. its 9:40 and nobody has passed my farm in 20 minutes. Its pretty deserted and I think all traffic stops dead around here at about 2 until about 5 and I'm only about 20 minutes from a large city. Besides, if you have a car with a reasonable clutch you should be okay. Ideally though he'll probably have some seat time in a parking lot learning to make it move. But that would only take about 10-15 minutes. There's only so much you can do in a parking lot until the learning curve is negligible and you need to move to a more open space.
I dunno though, I'm a different learner and I learn okay under pressure.
