If my driving instructor says that...?

...I am a very laid back driver, what does that mean?

Your instructor seems to think that you are a pretty cool driver - very relaxed. Got your vehicle and yourself under control. Just don't get too relaxed or complacent. If you start to feel tired or drowsy, pull over and take a break.

All the best.

Being “too laid back” compromises vision and car control.It shows a lack of interest in your driving and makes you more likely to doze off on a long journey.Thousands of accidents and near misses are caused by drivers giving in to the effects of fatigue.

One of the most important aspects of driving a modern vehicle is achieving a perfect driving position every time you get behind the wheel.

This is especially important if you share the driving: using somebody else’s settings for the mirrors and seats can quickly leave you tired and at needless risk of a nagging muscular pain as you find yourself “straining”.

Good seat positioning may sound boring, but it takes literally seconds, and will keep you comfortable and more alert on longer journeys.It’s also the position adopted by racing drivers, especially rally and touring car drivers.

* Sit in the car with the base of you spine in the back of the seat to prevent back problems.
* Hold the wheel at ten to two or quarter to three – keep your thumbs vertical
* Can you adjust the steering wheel for improved control?
* Make sure your arms are slightly bent
* Legs should also be slightly bent when your feet are on the pedals
* The back of the seat should be fairly upright, giving you a good view of the road ahead, and of course mirrors (rear and door) display and dials
* Ensure the head restraints are adjusted so they align with the top of your head.
