They were all in civilian clothes, although their black polo tops had SARS printed on it.
This is confusing.

This is also no NEWS, SARS are armed thieves.

I had encounter with some of them who thought they could harass innocent citizens in a bar in which I was sited.
After lots of drama, we got talking, I observed their recruitment process was dubious itself, and two of them were 'drop-outs' of NMS.
They were 'high' on hard drugs.

So sad.

Let's not make this a 'too-serious' thread, but let's learn and share.


Do you know...
The best and most recommended way to hold the steering wheel for general driving is with your hands placed at the 9 and 3 position (in other words, where 9 and 3 would appear if your steering wheel was a clock face). It allows you to turn the wheel most effectively and is the safest position if the airbag were to deploy. Many modern steering wheels even have thumb and finger grips to encourage you to hold the wheel in this position.

Holding the wheel at the 10 and 2 position used to be routinely recommended, but that was before the advent of airbags. Holding the wheel in this position could be deadly in the event of a crash, and hugely increases the possibility of injury caused by the deployment of the airbag.

Ensure you are sitting comfortably behind the steering wheel. If you extend your arm without lifting your shoulder from the cushion, your wrist should rest on the top of the wheel. You should not be sitting closer than 25cm (10 inches if you prefer) from the steering wheel hub.

Once seated comfortably, adjust the headrest and mirrors (inside and out) to suit your height. Adjust the steering wheel (some are adjustable up and down and in and out, others just up and down) using the lever or handle underneath the steering wheel – it may take a few moments to locate. You should be able to clearly see both side mirrors, rotate your head to check out any blind spots and have an unobstructed view through the windshield. Your external mirrors should show you what’s in the other lanes, not the side of your own car.

As you steer your vehicle, your hands should remain on the wheel at all times (unless you are driving a manual, in which case you’ll need to remove your right hand to change gears, but return your right hand to the wheel as soon as the gear change has been completed). The push-and-pull method allows you to safely rotate the steering wheel with both hands in contact. For example, for a right turn, you push the steering wheel in a clockwise motion with your left hand while simultaneously pulling the wheel in a clockwise direction with your right hand.

SOME BAD HABITS TO AVOID:

1. The steering wheel is not an armrest. Don’t drape your hand or forearm over the top of the wheel. Apart from reducing your control, it contorts your body into an unnatural position, further reducing your ability to react.

2. Don’t hold the wheel in any position other than 9 and 3. Holding the wheel with one of both hands in the upper quadrant severely reduces your ability to control your vehicle.

3. Don’t grab the wheel from behind (with the back of your hand facing forward and your fingers pointing back at you). Some drivers use this grip when making a turn. If the airbag were to deploy (which they do at 300km/h), the consequences could be very serious and in a collision your arm could be stuck and badly injured.

4. Don’t use the heel of your palm to turn the wheel. Such a technique offers minimal steering wheel control, and if the front wheels were to hit an obstacle, you have no ability to stop the steering wheel spinning out of your control. The same applies to driving with one hand, your fingertips or, even worse, with your knees.

5. If you are driving a manual vehicle, don’t rest your right hand on the gearlever. Once you have made the change, return your right hand to the steering wheel as quickly as possible.

6. Don’t let your passengers rest their feet on the dashboard. Apart from having to clean the dashboard later, if the airbag deploys, they could suffer serious injuries.

Now let's play and share...
Having read the above, we - as human, 'disobeys' the 'rules' unconsciously sometimes. grin
Several times, I have 'caught' myself doing the 7' O clock style.

Those school days, whenever we are opportune to drive into school or gatherings where school mates were... we do the 12,1 or 2 'O clock style with the left hand grin grin


At what 'time/clock' do u drive in your subconscious mind.
Share yours.

It's Christmas season again.
Christmas don't kill, wrong attitudes does.
Don't drink and drive; don't drive and drink.
Have a good sleep before getting on that steering.

I wish all Auto freaks (enthusiasts) a Merry Christmas and a prosperous New year.
