Keep your eyes on the road, your hands upon the wheel...Where are YOUR hands?

[Brutuskend]

Thanks for that fine bit of advice Jim!
Now.

When driving where do you place your hands on the wheel?

Myself, I usually drive with my left hand somewhere between the 1:00 and 1:30 position.

I drive a standard trans.

Where do YOU keep YOUR hands?

Do you usually use both hands, or just one?

Auto or stick?

Well, I'm still driving on my permit (road test in a month w00t). I drive at 2-3 and 10-11 usually, and with two hands.

You don't WANT to know where I keep my hands.:beer:😀


I steer with my teeth.

All kinds of ways. Usually my left on 12 and my right hand on the shifter (its an auto, but I find it comfortable). Sometimes I'll cross my arms, and my right will be at 11 and my left on 1. Other times my right will be at 4,5 or 6...

 

[Colt45]

usually left hand at 7 or 10 o'clock

sometimes right hand at 4 or so..

sometimes both on the wheel, 10 & 2 or so

 

[PoPPeR]

my right arm around my biatch, my left arm directly in front at 12:00... like a true gangsta...


Actaully i normally drive with one hand moving the wheel at around the 6:00 position, when I need to make a U-turn I either palm it or use two hands for ease. I'm very relaxed, driving is one of my favorite things to do.

2 o'clock and 10 o'clock position. quick shift, back on those positions.

Usually my hands are at 9 and 3 on the wheel. a lot of the time though i rest my right hand on the passenger seat and just drive with my left. i don't know how i picked up that habit.

Word of advice, learn how to drive and turn with just your left and just your right. It comes in handy if you ever break/sprain your arm. My aunt slipped on ice and fractured her arm. Driving wasn't pleasant...

I steer with my feet.

 

[Zrom999]

I keep my hands at 2 and 10 or 3 and 9... always keep both hands on the wheel, auto trans.

 

[Dudd]

I drive with my right hand at 12 o'clock. Seems natural.

 

[Anubis]

when i drive a automatic.

Left hand around 7-8. right hane in lap or cuillin round 5-6

same when i drive standard. cept right hand has to shift every now and then

 

[anno]

[conjur]

Left arm propped on the door with hand about 10-11 o'clock...sometimes I rest my hand on top of the steering wheel...sometimes use my right hand but rarely...like to keep it free so I can gab on the phone, play with the radio, or some other distracting activity.

Anyone else?

 

[DerwenArtos12]

i drive an auto and most of the time i drive with my knees. no really i am good at it. i ive in the boonies so to get anywhere it is about 20 min at least and it is dead straight to get there so i drive with my knees.

 

[Leetman]

When I'm feeling lazy, left hand at 7ish.

When I need a little more control, 1ish.

Edit, auto.
