- jerrre 4y agowhy not walk, with that argument
- kaashif 4y agoAlthough you're joking, I just want to say that avoiding needless work isn't laziness, it's efficiency. Maybe those are two sides of the same coin, but I could equally say people in the UK are being needlessly inefficient. Not just for themselves, but for others - automatics have had better fuel efficiency (less pollution) for years now. We could even go further and say that needlessly polluting to improve the "feel" of driving is immoral.
- domh 4y agoYup this is what I always say. Using modern conveniences doesn't equal laziness. There's a bunch of stuff that cars do for you automatically that you wouldn't call laziness for not doing it yourself: traction control, abs, power steering, using a choke to start the car etc. I lump changing gear into this bucket.
