To receive your driver's license, should it be mandatory to know how to drive a manual transmission vehicle?
No, what a ridiculous suggestion.
are slowly become less popular
Manual transmissions accounted for 6.5% of new car sales in 2012. That's not exactly 'slowly becoming less popular'. They're already only a small minority of cars sold in the US. Requiring everyone to learn to drive one would be idiotic. Like requiring everyone to learn how to light a gas lamp, or dial a rotary phone.
