    How d you steer your car? Do you "old-school Hand-over-hand steering", "one-hand palm steering" or "shuffle steering"?

    I always shuffle steer, minsan lang ako nag palm steering pag nag-multitasking...

    With 2 hands. Whichever hand has the most leverage takes lead with the other supporting.

    I normally need just one hand (one palm steering) unless I'm making a U-turn.

    depende sa kotse...

    but I usually place my left hand (or sometimes the right hand.. if I'm driving a car with A/T) on the 12 'o clock position. thats usually when I drive the beaters like my 190E, Camry, or the Aerostar.

    but when I'm driving my weekend warrior (MKIII Supra turbo), I usually keep my left hand on the 10 'o clock position then the right hand on the shifter.

    and when I drive in speeds of 145-160 mph.. I grab the steering wheel at both 10 & 2 'o clock positions!!! lolz!



    aite, peace.

    casual driving = left hand on 10:00, right hand on shifter
    making sharp turns, u-turns, etc = left on 10:00, right on 2:00
    highway = left on 10:00, right on 2:00

    For small turning radius at mabilis, hand over hand. Pero kung relaxed driving, left hand lang.
