I broke mine once when I took a fall off a bicycle.

Once it was in a cast and I got used to it, it wasn't a big deal. At least it's your left wrist, so you're not using it to shift.

Ooo... so many jokes!!!

I've broken both wrists, once at the same time! Bit of a nightmare but they sorted themselves out in about 6 weeks.

I wasn't banging gears for a while but normal driving was ok.

I fractured a bone in my wrist playing baseball and I was driving my S during the whole healing process. They never put it in a cast though, just a splint and a ace bandage so I guess it wasn't that serious. Good luck!!

Maybe not on the track, but for daily driving, I don't see why not.

I broke my left wrist in the 5th grade by jumping off a swing that was going high as hell. I was suppose to land on my feet but I started almost doing a front flip , I had to put my hands over my head and the impact just snapped it back It healed in about 2 months

unless you're driving a RHD vehicle, I don't see why you couldn't still function.

ehh... that sucks... I fractured my thumb last month... still in a cast and i was shifting with my left hand and driving with my leftt hand for a while since putting any strain/ pressure on it hurt like crazie... Another 2 more weeks and im good to go. So driving the S with ur right hand and shifting wit it, isnt that difficult. Good luck with the healing though
