Definately not in Kuala Lumpur & Singapore where you stop more than you move during rush hour.

On the other hand, when we used to live in the country side, the clutch cable broke once...We put it into 2nd, hung on tight, cranked the starter, and after a few seconds, the engine roared to life, and we were on our way. For once, having the A cam was an advantage... with low end torque, in 2nd gear, we could slowdown to almost near standstill...and enough to hit 25-30 mph to get to the shop. (and managed to get an OEM part at that time - somewhere in the mid '80s)
