How to Sit Comfortably in a Car Driving Position?

Adjust the distance between the brake, accelerator, legs, and the seat to ensure a natural bend between the thigh and calf when pressing the brake, clutch, and accelerator all the way down. The ideal seat angle is about 8 degrees between the backrest and the vertical direction, though it's not necessary to measure precisely with a protractor—just a general range. Adjust the distance between your arms and the steering wheel. The correct way to hold the steering wheel is at the 9 and 3 o'clock positions, with the steering wheel adjusted downward until your arms are parallel to your shoulders. Adjust the height of the seatbelt relative to your shoulders. The seatbelt should pass over the middle of your left collarbone and must not be lower than your shoulders—ideally 5-10 cm higher. During normal driving, your head will generally be away from the headrest. The height of the headrest should be adjusted so that when you lean back, the middle of the headrest aligns with the middle of your head.
