Question one or two hands on the steering wheel?

i am mostly a one handed driver

if i drive with two hands i feel i have less control than one hand on the wheel

when i am on the motorway i use two hands for overtaking and bends etc.
i feel a right tit if i have two hands on the wheel and am seen in public driving this way

how do you drive?

do you find that you have less control if you use two hands?

yes, less feel of the car although I need 2 hands on the wheel if say on a country road and your driving close to the edge and your trying to keep the car on track. Theres more feel on the steering wheel with one hand.

When you drive one handed, where do you place it on the wheel? On the spoke, outside at 3 o'clock? I used to always drive one handed until I bought the scoob, now I always drive using both hands.

sort of holding the middle bar at the 3 oclock position is the best place

Crossed my mind too LOL

When I used to drive I used to have both hands on the wheel, it took a while of driving with one hand at my side to be able to change gear without drifting across the road

What an utterly stupid thing to say. Are you that spasticated?
