One handed driving...

Keith Gregg

CAUTION - SLOW VEHICLE
This is a habit I am desperately trying to break as taking the sharper bends is a lot better with both hands on the wheel (feeding the wheel)...it is a habit I picked up before I passed my driving test IRL (31 years ago lol and I still remember my instructor bollocking me for it) and I just cant shake it.
Being a Brit I have my rig setup for right hand driving, using the left hand to shift but I tend to just leave my left hand on the gear stick...very naughty...I REALLY need to break this habit lol.

10 and 2 was before airbags, with 9 & 3 you're less likely to have broken thumbs or smash yourself in the head when the airbags go off
Obviously the British driving test hasn't caught up with that thinking yet, as two driving instructors I know are still expected to teach 10 & 2. One of them doesn't bother though, and his students generally don't fail due to wheel control.
