While driving a car equipped with airbags, do not place your hands on the steering wheel at __________ positions.
Correct answer
- the 8 o'clock and 4 o'clock
- the 10 o'clock and 2 o'clock
- the 9 o'clock and 3 o'clock
Explanation
While driving a vehicle equipped with airbags, try to maintain at least 10 inches between yourself and the steering wheel. Keep your hands at the 8 and 4 o'clock positions or the 9 and 3 o'clock positions on the steering wheel. Avoid the 10 and 2 o'clock positions. Airbags deploy at very high speed. If your hands are high on the steering wheel, the airbag could drive your hands right into your face or even severely injure your hands.
