Comment on They won't teach you this in Drivers Ed

Get the gas going slightly while holding the brake, then ease off to move forward without rolling back. Because the guy behind you is always too close for comfort.

Similar technique would be used for manuals as well. You’d heal-toe on a hill so you don’t roll back, same with downshifting and slowing down quickly to make a turn.
