The police use it (or are supposed to) and it's the safest technique for a number of reasons, the main one being that your hands are never crossing or covering the airbag. And that it is smoother. And I hate the character limit on here! I could write a 500 word essay on this subject!
0:30 - 0:37 You just used the safest steering technique. I always use it but I'm not sure why you did it then, you always use the hand over hand technique. LOL. Maybe you just wanted something different for a few seconds?
@04smallmj I also used it because I knew you'd see this video and leave a comment for me to reply to like I'm doing right now LOL, ...I usually call it the "granny's lazy" steering technique haha
@mercmilan06 Lazy? I think otherwise LOL. We learn it for our driving test here but I reckon about 95% of people go back to the hand over hand technique after they pass, probably due to laziness. I still use it because I can't get myself to use the other technique LOL. I did it on the first driving lesson and it felt awkward and unnatural. I use the palming technique where I need a lot of steering fast but I don't use it above 20 MPH. oh, and the official name for it is pull-push steering.
@MasterSnowstorm if only you could have seen how i actually got it in the car, it's just a regular tripod and i had the passenger seat reclined, i used the seatbelt, it was rather elaborate LOL

I could really use on of those, instead of a mini-tripod
