To hold the steering wheel, place

Correct answer

  • your left hand between 8 and 10 o'clock and your right hand between 2 and 4 o'clock.
  • your left hand at 11 o'clock and your right hand at 2 o'clock.
  • your left hand between 10 and 12 o'clock and your right hand between 1 and 3 o'clock.

Explanation

To hold the steering wheel, place your left hand between 8 and 10 o'clock and your right hand between 2 and 4 o'clock. This position is claimed to facilitate high-speed turns. If your vehicle is equipped with a driver's side airbag, keep your hands below 10 o'clock and 2 o'clock. If your hands are higher than that when the driver's side airbag deploys, it could shove your hands into your face or even injure your hands.
