Kamay sa Manibela

[ncncn]

There was this driving manual that I managed to read ages ago and it seemed from the UK driving methods. In the manual, it said that the hands should be position at 10min to 2 o'clock position or 15min to 3 o'clock position. This is so that you can have the greatest control of the steering wheel and have the use of both your hands in maneuvering your vehicle. Try typing "the highway code" on google.

correct po yan mang ponso. tsaka ginagawa lang yan ng mga Learners pero karamihan pag-nakapasa na ng practical test eh kanya-kanya na rin ng style sa manibela parang sa pinas..... hehehe.

i make it a habit to always place both my hands sa SW.
9 o'clock and 3 o'clock position.

[JagXtrm]

ako (M/T driver, never A/T)

daily driving - 3 o'clock & 9 o'clock position
highway (NLEX, relaxed straight roads) - 4 o'clock & 8 o'clock
Baguio-like roads & spirited driving - 2 o'clock & 10 o'clock

ayaw ko ng ganito kasi:
12 o'clock -- eto yung mahilig mag swerve sa traffic, hindi stable pag highway driving
6 o'clock -- maiipit balls ko pag nandito both hands ko

usually have my have my left on 9 and my right on the shifter. dati lagi both hands on the SW pero lately kse mabagal lng ako mgpatakbo e. hehehe.....

[v6dreamer]

any position will do. Kung saan ang comfortable na position doon ako.

[knight23]

always 2-3 and 9-10 ang hawak ko pag AT. pag MT na shifter or 9-10 yung right hand ko.

[teeyoh]

I apply the 10-2 positions at higher speeds and when full concentration is required; one palm during manuevering or slowly backing up...
On idle or relaxed mode elbows on arm rest while in stop and go city driving the 6 o'clock position naman.

I don't recall reading that on the Highway Code, mang ponso ... IIRC it's on the Driving Standards Agency (DSA) book "Driving - The Essental Skills".

As for me, I still keep my hands on the wheel at the 10 and 2'oclock positions, long after I passed the test that required it.

You could be right there, StraightSix. As I said, I came across those literature ages ago.... Lost brain cells might be getting the better of me. Guess I am showing my age now, aren't I?

OT: We could be on the same boat ... I also have my doubts that's why I used the words "recall/IIRC".

Old Fart - There are two signs of old age.
Old Geezer - What?
Old Fart - One is forgetfulness.
Old Geezer - What's the other one?
Old Fart - Uuuuh. I can't remember.
