Clutchless gear changes

Early summer Sunday morning empty roads perhaps?

Agreed. I wouldn't consider it a road safety issue at all.

All this ignores the fact that it is essentially mucking about on public roads. Why anyone would advocate trying to learn a new skill while there are vulnerable road users everywhere is beyond me. I am all for spirited driving but in the way the car is intended to be used. A badly timed change could lead to sudden deceleration/acceleration that neither the driver or those around would be expecting (esp due to lack of brake lights etc). There are enough numptys on the road already without this kind of thing.

Missed the point completely.

I'm for spirited driving too (not wreckless), but this is exactly the opposite of both.

Also, misjudged change wouldn't affect the speed of the car any more than putting the car in the wrong gear using the clutch, actually, without using the clutch it's not possible at all..... So in that respect; it's safer!
