Just get an automatic transmission instead. That might be my American perspective showing though. I know manual transmissions are more common in Europe (or at least I've heard), but I don't know if that's just driver preference or for some other reason (like cost).

I will say when I rented a car in Wales in the mid 2010s they had like literally 2 automatics and they were double the rate. It wasn't at all common there then.

In France they're only starting to get traction. They just weren't a thing until say ten or fifteen years ago. Top of the line cars had the option, but it was very rare. It's a matter of culture. We have an automatic now (wife is more comfortable with it), it handles gear changes shittily but it appeases my left leg, so we're even.

A tip for this: the accelerator is less important, slowly release the clutch until you feel the car vibrating, then you can release the brakes and the car will not move, or start moving slowly, then you can start accelerating and releasing the rest of the clutch.
