  • Manual Car Licences Decline as New Drivers Prefer Automatics but Some Prioritize Manuals
    May 24, 2026, 5:57 PM EDT. Manual car licences are declining in Queensland, with automatic licences rising from 7% to 21% over 23 years. Despite this, young drivers like Roxsy Francis opt for manual licences for greater control and trade opportunities. Instructor Kerry Turner notes increasing female interest in manuals for apprenticeships in trades. Retired instructor Greg Williams says manual driving is a "dying race" in Brisbane, with 90% opting for automatics. Regional areas maintain higher manual licence rates, over 80%. The shift reflects urban drivers' preference for automatic cars, while some pursue manuals for skill advantages.
