both hands on wheel except when shifting... learned from gt5.... but i usually keep my hand on the stick till at least 3rd gear.... |
Both hands on the wheel, at all times, except when shifting. Jerking off while driving is not an allowable exception. Quote:

for highway i don't put my hand on the shifter driving m/t..and i always put my hand on the shifter on city but i always rest my hand on my a/t shifter though lol |

I keep my hands at 10 and 4 when accelerating (for quicker shifts), 10 and 2 when cruising |
i leave my foot above the clutch pedal until i pass 3rd gear.. so |

i rest my hand on the E-brakes than its easy to shift from there unless im on highway than its both hands on the wheel......although when my GF is in the car i have my hand in her lap |
honestly, city driving I have my hand on the shifter highway, it's usually on my lap... just a habit, plus city driving involves a lot of shifting and i'm lazy to keep moving my hand from steering wheel back to shifter, it's not like i'm racing i'm just driving from point A to B... |
Our Conclusion Is? Yes, it is bad mechanically? |
Well according to my cars instruction manual. It says when the car is in gear, do not rest your hand on the lever. Be because it puts unecessary pressure on the gears. But when in neutral, yah i do it all the time. I think its right though cause when it IS in gear and you put even the slightest pressure on it you feel the grinding/vibrations |

(IOW, get your hand off your knob and you won't have anything to worry about:p) |

and also, provided you give yourself the proper following distance you should have plenty of time. |
usually rest my hand on the shifter during city driving, cuz i have short gears and shift at 3k rpm usually. highway i just rest on the center arm rest. |
