Observation, Speed & SpaceStandalone practice
A taller family member drove the car last, and the seat and mirrors are still set for that driver. When should you adjust them?
Correct answer: Before you start the engine, while the car is still parked.
Why
A good seat position lets you reach every control and see well over the steering wheel, and correct mirrors show the traffic behind and beside you. The handbook lists these checks, with clean windows and buckled belts, as steps to do before you start the engine. If you do them while moving, your attention leaves the road when you need it most.
