Do you want to protect yourself from increased fatigue and handle vehicle control normally?

Then don't make one big mistake!

How not to hold the steering wheel

You can't "grab too much" of the steering wheel.

In other words, don't grip the steering wheel too tightly.

There is no need to bring the situation to the point of strong tension in the muscles of the shoulder girdle.

If you ignore the situation, you may at some point simply not be able to control the car.

Another important rule for hand placement on the steering wheel

The grip should be symmetrical.

Imagine that the steering wheel is a clock face. Place your hands at the 2 and 10 o'clock positions. Another acceptable option is 3 and 9 o'clock.

Compliance with this rule is a guarantee that you can freely and easily turn the steering wheel both to the right and to the left.
