Steering And ControlStandalone practice
Which steering-wheel hand position does the Alberta guide recommend when the wheel design allows it?
Correct answer: About 9 o'clock and 3 o'clock
Why
Place the left hand at about 9 o’clock and the right at about 3 o’clock. If wheel design makes that impossible, the Alberta guide gives about 10 and 2 as an alternative. Maintain controlled contact with the wheel.
