I went from driving a stick for months/years, to jumping into an automatic. One day I instinctively went to press the clutch and jammed on the brakes. My mom was riding shotgun and asked what that was about. Just a brain fart, trying to shift an automatic car.

Automatics have an extra wide brake pedal that approach the area that would be occupied by a clutch.
