When adjusting the driver’s seat, what chest-to-steering-wheel distance does Maryland’s manual recommend?
Correct answer: Try to keep 10 to 12 inches while retaining proper control.
Why
Try to keep 10 to 12 inches between your chest and the steering wheel while maintaining proper control of the vehicle. Adjust the seat and use the seat belt correctly. Air bags supplement the belt; they do not make a close, unbelted seating position safe.
