Do you wear gloves while driving?

[mommyblue]

Seems like I'm the only one here who wears gloves when driving.

I started using gloves last December. At first it felt weird since wearing gloves restricted my fingers and the feel of the steering wheel was thicker. But after a few days it already felt natural that I made it a habit to use gloves everytime I drive.

My reasons for wearing gloves:
1. To prevent blisters since my hands blister easily
2. Hygiene

Not to make a big deal out of this. But, I'm trying to picture how someone can get blisters just from driving. I can see someone getting blisters if the vehicle they're driving is some kind of huge truck with no power steering and the wheel alignment is so horrible it swerves as soon as you let go of the wheel. You're constantly battling to keep the truck straight on the road.

But a car...... Gee, my 06 Hyundai Sonata is a big and heavy car. But I can drive it with one right thumb and index finger on the steering wheel while my left arm is draped over the open window and me trying to look cool.

My chances of getting blisters are far greater handling exercise machines in the gym.

of course you can get bilisters if your hands are very sensitive like mine.. i use a moisturizing gloves (made of cotton and some stretchy material) to protect my hands from dust and even the steering wheel.. i also wear them while i'm asleep.. i wear them whenever i can.. i already got used to it..

:fyi:, i have skin asthma since birth.. when i was still young, i have skin asthma in almost every part of my body.. Now that i've grown, most of them already healed but the one on my hands haven't been cured.. i guess, it's more prone to allergies so the healing process takes longer..

i just started wearing gloves this year when i accidentally bumped in a moisturizing gloves.. it's breathable and it lessens the contact with allergens..
