Hello guys, most times one gets curious about the day to day life of a left handed individual especially when it comes to driving. Hence one is tempted to ask, has it been convenient driving a car especially a manual transmission? Has anyone been in a car driven by a left handed driver? Did you notice anything different ? 1 Like |

Am also left handed and i drive very effectively. The thing about our hands is that once you start using a particular hand for something, you get used to it. Same goes for the mouse I handle the mouse perfectly with my right 20 Likes 2 Shares |

I don't have any problems with driving (manual transmission). In my experience i think it`s much easier for left-handed people to drive with one hand on the wheel and one on the gear. 6 Likes |

Just noticed this left handed lady in churh yesterday was planning to do some googling on why some use the left hand and the probable side effect one thing i observe recently is that the governor of lagos state Babatunde Raji Fashola is a leftie . those people seem one kind to me . 1 Like |

lionduke: don't think it affects them Exactly. It`s much easier holding the wheel with your `strong hand` while the weaker one handles the stick which incidentally happens to be on your right  3 Likes 2 Shares |

Lefties always have the advantage of using both hands better. While a right handed person sticks to using right from childhood, a left-handed person would be subjected to trying both hands until the parent are convinced 5 Likes |

It's not hard at all..It's just like driving a right handed vehicle where you need your left hand to control the gear... As long as you are not driving 9-11 trucks, gear shift are smooth in most cars. 2 Likes |

It affected me. Its not about the left hand or steering wheel, Its about the leg. This is why I still can't drive a manual car. Even in auto, I have had to train my right leg to use the brake and accelerator. They should make cars for Lefties. 1 Like |
