What hand do you drive with?

[Silver82x]

Is that a 5spd AT or 5 spdMT?!

It's a manual.. They made about 2000 Astros with manual trannys the year my van was built.

I barely started driving, but my car is a 4-speed manual, so I drive with me left, but with an automatic, with my right.

[Scott 02]

I always drive with my left. Im just used to it b/c my dad made me drive our 1986 Cavalier for a month. Its a 4-Speed.

Haha yeah, my friend has a 5-speed Astro...it rules

And I said RESTING on my crotch

It's just where my hands default to while sitting

Shift with Right hand steer with both (When I'm not shifting) and all the three cars in my household are manual btw

I used to drive mostly with both. Then came the manual tranny, so I now drive with my left hand at about 7 and my right hand either shifting, holding the remote to my head unit, or just chilling out.

[tonioseven]

I switch up; sometimes right and sometimes left.

i drive with me meft, have to shit of course, but when not shiting, it's comfortable to rest the ol left hand at 6 o'clock...btw, i don't rest my right hand on the stick cause it puts unnecessary pressure on the gearbox

[Neutrino]

well my left is for my cell my right for my soda drink. So i drive like all pros with my knee.

hope that's an 'f' that's missing,and not a 't'!!!!!!

me,Idrive with both,window is usually down with my elbow poking out[even with the seat pushed right back,it's still too cramped on long journeys].

[freakray]

It depends what country I am in....

In South Africa and the UK I steer with my right and shift with my left, in the USA I steer with my left and shift with my right.....

I am one of those people that like to actually drive the car, so I have a manual transmission.

I drive with both. Left on the steering wheel right on the stick.

[JE123]

Woo woo. It took 10 months but I got some replies.

[Marc-OS]

I use both hands to drive, hands are placed at 9 o'clock and 3 o'clock respectively, and I only do that because I'm an autoX wannabe.

Usually both. However if I'm on a long trip I take turns.

Also curious, WHERE are your hands when you drive? I have my right hand at 3, my left either at 9 or grabbing the post that's at 7:30.

When I have both hands on the wheel, I aim to stay left hand at 9 o'clock, right at 3 o'clock. In lazier situations (say on a straight section of highway at cruising speed), or when shifting, I have the left at 10 to 10:30, and the right either resting on an arm rest or shifting.
