How do you Drive

Right hand on steering wheel, left on manual gearlever or on the console

 

It probably sounds a bit stupid, but I have a necklase that I never take off, and I've gotten in the habit of driving with my right hand and having my left hand on my necklase. Weird hey?

 

so u drive round with ur hand the the very top of ur chest kinda like in the italian **** u position??

 

:unsure:
...yeah, pretty much.

 

hmmm, if u know the simpsons, its like wat maggie did when she was driving and got tailgated, she did it in the mirror.

 

one on the wheel, one on the shifter

 

that sounds increidbly dangerous, please dont do it again

 

If anyone's done defensive driving training in the wet they'll know silly it is to drive without two hands on the wheel at 3 and 9. :rip:

 

Thank you Jr, The only person it would have been dangerous to was myself in the case of an accident, I new the risks. I drive atleast 3 hours every day, so I need to be comfortable, having back cramps and spasms whilst driving is definitly more dangerous to myself and the other people around me. But its ok caus I wont be driving the VT anymore.

 

10 and 2 baby. I get my passengers to change gears.

 

usually a mate of mine will drive a manual ute with a 7/11 slurpe in one hand a cigarette in the other knees on the wheels and the pasanger changing gears lol

 

lol the exact same way i drive i hardly ever have my hands at the top of the wheel there always at the bottom feels more comfortable

 

Can anyone tell me what a Fully sick arm position is.
I always drive with one hand. Hate useing two hands.

 

i think they mean ur right hand at the top of the wheel with there arm streached out as far as they can cos there seat is that far back and the other iduno and leaning to the passenger side but iduno thats i what i would call it

 

Hands on 9 & 3 but for some reason I still have the habit of resting my hand on the shift, even though I drive an auto now

I have done the Level 1 Defensive Driver Course and the amount of difference a properly adjusted seat makes is incredible.

-Slippy

 

i drive with 2 hands on the wheel depending on conditions, if its a long drive i try to give the arms turns. but i usually hold the wheel low down anyway

 

Troy711, i dont drive a manual atm, but will be going to manual soon.... I've learned on manual cars for a while and was stuck driving one for a year before my VY, i guess you never loose the habit. On my way to uni today i looked at where my hand goes.... on the handbrake, sometimes on the shifter LOL

 

1 hand on the wheel and my other arm/elbow on my door

if its wet 2 hands

:thumbsup:

 

i can imagine if this was posted on a ricer forum, the most popular response would most likely be "one hand on the wheel, the other - ripping the e brake"
