Some small part of me wants to use vim-clutch and make a manual transmission version of this.

Exactly, a keyboard should replace that clumsy driving wheel that protrudes. It would be MUCH easier to pilot if every car function had a vim shortcut.

The safety angle is key. I’ve never had vim crash on me.

But if you do crash, next time you get into the car it’ll ask you if you want to restore from backup or delete the car.

I like the idea of pressing the clutch pedal to go to insert mode, and releasing it to go back to normal mode.

That’s the usual vim clutch. I used to use it that way but the pedal I used did not offer enough resistance and so my foot would tire.

If your foot would tire, that's a sign that you were running _in front of_ the car. When you run behind the car, your foot will be exhausted.

In my case, since the foot was too tired, it must have been a bicycle or motorcycle.

That's terrific, thank you! The kids are going to hear this!
