Where do you put your hands |
|
when you're driving?
Are you a 10 and 2 person? I'm a 7:30 and 11:30 person myself.

sorry, lack of imagination on my part, I'm sure.
The conservation movement is a breeding ground of communists and other subversives. We intend to clean them out, even if it means rounding up every birdwatcher in the country. --John Mitchell, US Attorney General 1969-72

18. My arms aren't crossed |
|
One hand is where the crossbar hits the rim of the steering wheel and the other is at the top (slightly to the left.)

With the prevelence of airbags, they are teaching 9 and 3 so your hands don't shoot up and break your face.
That said, I am more of a one arm on the stick shift, one hand loosly on the 12:00 postion. }(

12. Left hand at 11, right hand on the stick. |
|
That goes for automatics too. I can't drive using two hands because I'm so used to driving a manual. The exception is making u-turns. Kinda weird, huh? :shrug:

16. 6:30. Bad habit, I know. |
|
I remember years ago when I was having my behind-the-wheel instruction, my instructor drove to a parking lot for my first lesson, and he had his hands at 6:30.
"Don't get into this habit," he said. "Do as I say, not as I do."

I'm a Pepper. (You're a Pepper, he's a Pepper, she's a Pepper, wouldn't you like to be a Pepper too? :-) )
Normally, right hand at 6. Sometimes, at 5:55, sometimes at 6:01. Life's too short not to live it up a little.

23. I used to be a 10 and 2, or a 9 and 3 person. |
|
Recently, however, with the advent of some painfully nasty bony spurs in my right shoulder, I now keep both hands at 6:30. Sometimes the right one at 6:30 and the left at 8 or 9...Depends on how much my shoulder is hurting!

24. My ex would drive with one hand, his left |
|
at the midnight position, sometimes alternating with his right so he could do the farmer's tanning salon with his left elbow hanging out the window. One time I thought I'd seen him steer with his knees.

Sometimes it's only "9", though, with my right hand poised above the horn.

Or all three!
