Driving with one hand is not to show your skills, nor to be cool, but to drive more easily.
It's like, your mother at home taught you: "Take a bowl to eat." But we are usually lazy, so it is possible to put the bowl directly on the table, pick it there and eat it with one hand.
Driving with one hand is not a good technique, nor is it cool.
Driving with two hands is more tiring than driving with one hand.
Most people drive with one hand, because driving with two hands is really more tiring than driving with one hand.
There is a paper in Clinical Education, a journal of General Medicine, on the significance of neurophysiological detection in the clinical diagnosis of patients with hand anesthesia and arm anesthesia.
Long-term compression will hinder the transmission of axonal fluid in the axons of peripheral nerve trunks, resulting in numbness of hands and pain in forearms.
Talk to people: When driving, always hold the steering wheel with both hands and always keep your arms suspended.
Just like Tony's teacher in the barber shop. Didn't he hold hands and cut all day? This will easily lead to local muscle spasm, slow blood circulation, and soreness and discomfort.
When driving with one hand, the other hand can have a good rest, and you can change back and forth when you are tired.
The other hand can do other things.
Driving with one hand is not only labor saving, but also doing other things with the other hand.
According to a survey by CarFinance 247, a British financial company, only 6% drivers drive with both hands at any time.
Reasons for driving with one hand include: comfort, possibility of eating, putting away your mobile phone, controlling the big screen twice, smoking a cigarette and touching your pet.
Foreigners really have everything.
Some people are old drivers with manual transmission. They drive with one hand because they are used to it. Their right hand always has to change gears and operate there, right?
So in a word, it doesn't even matter whether driving with one hand is handsome or not, or whether the technology is good or not.
How dangerous is driving with one hand?
Many people usually drive with one hand. How dangerous is this?
Normal one-handed driving is not a big problem.
Generally speaking, driving with one hand is not a big problem.
The University of Leeds published an article in cooperation with Esure Insurance Company, entitled "Doing Other Things while Driving (Two Hands are Safer than One)".
It says: Let several drivers use the driving simulator to simulate driving, watch them drive and get an experimental result.
When driving with one hand, if the other hand does nothing, you can achieve the same driving performance as driving with two hands.
However, with the increase of vehicle speed, two-handed driving can better control the vehicle, especially in case of emergency or avoiding obstacles.
Therefore, we usually drive with both hands. If we have to drive with one hand, don't drive faster. You drive a expressway and play with one hand over there. I'm scared to hear it myself.
But don't do anything else when driving with one hand.
In addition, the biggest safety hazard of driving with one hand is that the other hand is really doing something else while driving.
The expressway Safety Administration (NHTSA) in the United States has a paper, "A Study on Driver's Distraction", which reads.
Driving with one hand is more risky than driving with both hands, and when driving with one hand, if the other hand is doing other things, people's reaction time will increase.
For example: eating increases reaction time by 44%; Take a sip of water and drink it directly, and the reaction time will increase by 22%.
You may have no idea about "reaction time". Let me give you an example.
As we said in the previous video, when people are driving, they suddenly encounter an emergency, or they will hit or turn. It takes 1 to 2s on average from seeing the situation to stepping on the brakes.
If the speed is 80km/h and you drive while eating, the reaction time will increase by 0.44 to 0.88s, which is less than 1s, and the car will drive out by 9.8 to19.6 m.
Just a little stronger: "huh?" 20m has gone out, 20m! Generally, the length of the bus is less than 5m, and the distance of 4 cars goes out, and more than 4 cars.
Most people drive with one hand to make their hands more comfortable.
So in a word, most people drive with one hand to make their hands more comfortable, not to show their good skills, nor to be cool and unnecessary.
I also don't recommend driving with one hand, especially when the speed is relatively fast. There's nothing wrong with holding it in both hands.
