LOL, that would not be good either. You don't want your arms between you and the airbag. Though I suppose it could protect your face from any possible burns from the exploding airbags, but would have other negitive effects.

Generally just before a crash, most people's arms are tensed against the steering wheel and their feet against the brake pedal and floor. Except for drunk drivers, who tend to not react at all and just flop around during the crash. Which generally results in them being injured less severely, then non-intoxicated drivers. Which is why drunk drivers often survive crashes, while their victims do not. But that is another subject.

I like to make driving more challenging. I use my knees to drive at the 4 and 8 o'clock position and push on the breaks and gas with stick. I started this in 2016 in NOV. once I I realized since we elected a clown, why not treat everyday like it is a circus.

I was wondering if anyone was going to come up with exactly correct answer and reason - wrists. At the seniors get 10% off your insurance class we were told 8-4
