Car Driver's Seating Posture & Steering Holding Position:
1. Seating Posture
✅ Seat Angle: Adjust the backrest to 100°-110° for a comfortable and ergonomic posture.
✅ Thigh Support: Ensure your thighs are well-supported on the seat without extra pressure under the knees.
✅ Heel Grounded: Keep your heel on the floor while using the pedals to maintain control and smooth pedal operation.
✅ Elbow Bend: Your elbows should be slightly bent when holding the steering wheel to prevent fatigue and improve control.
2. Steering Holding Position
✅ 10-2 or 9-3 Position: Hold the steering wheel at either 10-2 or 9-3 for maximum control and safety.
✅ Grip: Use a relaxed but firm grip without excessive tension.
✅ Thumb Position: Keep thumbs resting lightly on the outer rim of the wheel, not wrapped inside, to prevent injuries during airbag deployment.
This posture ensures better control, reduced fatigue, and improved safety while driving. 🚗💨
