Women who drive large sedans are

When a woman driving a large sedan is seen from oncoming traffic, she often sees only from the face up, without exaggeration.Most of the time, the upper body is submerged under the steering wheel.I said, "Huh? Is that a child driving?" but I wonder if they can really see properly ahead in that condition...

At one point.What is it about women driving large sedans that makes you think, "Oh, I don't know.I think they must be sinking that low in the seat.Are you sure you can see what's in front of you?"I asked my husband and this is what he told me.

I know, but...I'm sinking in my own high and mighty self.

...eh....I wish I could have been there...!

."No, no, I can see straight ahead. I'm not sinking.He insisted that he was a "good man," but like the other madams, he could only see their faces. Then he told me this.

Most women who drive large sedans areAfter he drives, I just adjust the seat back and forth and ride.I think. But that's not good. You have to adjust the seat up and down, and the steering wheel forward and backward. If you don't know the correct driving position, it is really dangerous.

...drive position...I had never thought of that.

At one point, when I adjusted the seat position firmly, I found that I was driving very far forward and also sinking into the seat.In addition, the seats can be adjusted up and down to provide a higher field of vision, making driving much easier.As expected, it was not as high as a Cayenne or Macan, but it was enough to make me feel like I was driving a car with a slightly higher ride height.

What is the correct driving position?

The driving position is explained in detail and clearly in this video.

According to this video, it is important to first have a perfect driving position before starting the engine. I used to start the engine without thinking, but I guess not. Largely.

(1) Relationship between steering wheel and wrist
(2) Seat position that allows pedaling without problems
(iii) Steering wheel position assuming curves
(4) Position with steering wheel

The following is an explanation of the following. If these things are well coordinated, theDrives correctly around curves and in a straight lineYes. It also seems that it is important to be able to drive with your shoulders properly positioned on the seat. If you do so, you will be able toWhen going around a curve, the user can apply force not only from the arms but also from the shoulders, which makes it possible to drive the curve in a stable manner.

I gave it a try and sure enough, it was easier to drive. Porsche is usually an easy car to drive compared to other supercars, etc., but it was even easier to drive, and I felt like I had not lost a millimeter in handling.

And as I became more aware of my driving position, I realizedWhen I see a Porsche on the highway, I look over as I pass it, and most drivers are driving in this correct driving positionThe first is the "I" in "I".

I see. These days, I think that the driving position is extremely important not only for enjoying driving, but also for safety.

(I have since written a detailed article on the key points of the driving position ↓↓↓)

    Hello.

    I would caution our young female staff to stand up more on their seat backs.
    They don't listen.
    I think women are more likely to bite the handles.

    Porsche seats can be genuine.
    The driving position seems to be easy to click into place.

    I'm not the only one who sees it from the public's point of view.
    I think it looks like "someone with the seatback up and the seat raised."

    Still, there is no shortage of topics.
    It is very interesting.

      Thank you for reading all of my past articles!
      In my mind, the previous articles were so poorly written and embarrassing that I would prefer not to see them...

      But thank you for saying so.
