Head: The head should have the correct position against the head restraint (also previously known as head rest). The head restraint should be as high as the top of your head and the centre of it positioned in line with your eye. It’s important for the head restraint to be adjusted correctly because it reduces the risk of neck (such as whiplash) and spine injuries.
Hands: The left hand should be used to control the handbrake, gear stick, left stem (usually this is where the indicators and light switches are found) and the other controls such as air conditioning, the radio and so on. The right hand needs to control the other usual controls which are found on the right of the vehicle such as the right stem (which usually controls the windscreen wipers etc). The right hand should also be kept on the steering wheel when using the left hand whilst using the handbrake and gear stick- this is simply is to control the car whist driving for safety reasons.
Feet: The left foot controls the clutch and brake pedals, whilst the right foot controls the accelerator pedal. The reason for this is because it’s the safest way to drive, the feet don’t get tangled up trying to reach the different pedals and it’s also less confusing to drive this way too.
