Many drivers often neglect to adjust the position of the driver's seat before driving. In fact, the correct driving posture can effectively protect the safety of the driver. If the seat position is not suitable, it will affect the driver's vision and control sensitivity, and even lead to traffic accidents, hurting themselves and others.
Therefore, the first thing to do before driving is to adjust the height of the driver's seat. The correct seat height should be adjusted so that the driver's view is not obstructed by the steering wheel and that all important instruments and street signs are clearly visible. After adjusting the height of the seat, adjust the front and rear position of the seat. First of all, you should lean your hips back as far as possible, so that it is best between the seat cushion and the back of the seat, so that you can sit more firmly and not shake. After sitting firmly, you should pay attention to the position of your hands and feet, and put your left and right hands on the steering wheel at 9 and 3 o'clock respectively. At this time, you cannot let your back leave the back of the seat. If you leave, it means that you are sitting too far back. The seat must be moved forward. The other two hands should be slightly bent, so that in the event of an accident, the impact force can be effectively dispersed and the force should not be concentrated on each joint of the arm.
In addition, the left and right feet must be positioned so that the legs remain flexed when the pedals are fully depressed. If your legs are straight when you press the pedals all the way, be sure to pull the seat forward a bit. It is worth noting that do not let your knees rest on the steering column, and keep a certain distance, otherwise the movement of the feet will be affected and the response will not be timely.
Seat belt is a very effective safety device, which can effectively alleviate the forward momentum of a person. The seat belt also has its way of fastening, and the position where the seat belt is pulled down in the general car can usually be adjusted. The correct position is to adjust it so that when the seat belt is not in use, it rests on the B-pillar and is at or about the height of the eyes. In this way, when the seat belt is buckled, it will just pass through the chest and collarbone. Once the impact occurs, the impact force will not be too concentrated in a certain position and hurt the passengers.
