Automatic Only
It is very uncommon for people in the United States to drive a manual car, as most cars available are automatic. In fact, often it’s actually more expensive to purchase a stick shift car, especially when it comes to sports cars. However, in Europe, it is much more common for cars to be manual as a default option.
Telling Time
Once again, in stark contrast to pretty much the rest of the world, the way Americans tell time is quite different. In the United States, digital clocks don’t go up to 24 hours, like the rest of the world. In fact, Americans refer to this styling as military time. In order to differentiate between daytime and nighttime hours, Americans use AM/PM.
