> I always found it difficult to

I used to find it difficult to a lot of things, until I practiced enough to be able to do them, which is usually what that predicate implies. It's like people that say they have to use one foot for the brake pedal and the other for the accelerator because they find it difficult to use one for both.

My pinkies are double jointed. They lock up the second I try to bend them on their own without also flexing my ring finger/that half of my hand.

Easier said than done.

How do they use the clutch? If they're doing reverse heel-and-toe braking then I don't get how they find standard driving difficult.
