How should I be sitting?
Discussion
It occurred to me that I don't really know how to sit properly in the car. All I do, is get myself relatively comfy, check I can see things in the mirrors and off I go.
What exactly should I be able to see in the door mirrors, for instance? How much of my car's bodywork should I see (I think I remember my instructor telling me half of the width of the mirror glass should be my own car, and the rest should be road / surroundings)?
I find my forearms ache if I drive any distance with my hands at 10-2... is it likely I have the steering wheel set too high?
Any pointers on what I should be looking out for, to make sure I'm sat correctly?
