How tall do you need to be to practice driving without a cushion?

[Dorothy]

It is generally recommended that students under 1.6 meters in height prepare a cushion, just in case. Of course, the main factor is the height of the driver's seat. If a 1.6-meter-tall student sits on it and the distance between their head and the car roof is more than a fist, a cushion is needed. Some test cars have adjustable seat heights. Adjusting the seat to its highest position, leaving a fist's worth of space between the head and the roof, is usually appropriate, and then a cushion is not necessary. Here are some additional tips for Subject 2: Press the clutch pedal all the way down with your left foot and hold it steady. Hold the steering wheel with your right hand and adjust the seat with your left hand until your left leg is comfortably bent and can exert force. Then lock the seat in place. The backrest angle should allow your body to form a 90-degree angle.
