AFAIK that is still the case, no?
I can vouch for Belgium, where this is still the case. I have yet to meet someone who can only drive automatic (except for people with disabilities ofcourse)
Oh, I can confirm I have met a person in Belgium who could only drive automatic.
I've met plenty of people who should be driving automatic though lmao
Honestly, I lived in Antwerp for a while... I think the transmission is the least of their problems.
It's possible to do an automatic only license, but for most people it doesn't make sense to do so, so no one does.
Still the case in France, although you can upgrade your "automatic-only" driving license to a regular one by following an additional 7 hour course.
