    I think she is trying to achieve the rather obscure, but equally effective "quarter to twelve" position. This is a tricky position to master, but highly regarded in some schools of thought!!

    LOL if her airbag went off, looks like she'd end up dislocating a shoulder

    I mainly have three problems in most cars, and they all relate to lower body length. It's always hard for me to get into the car, esepcially small ones. My legs get stuck on the steering wheel while going in and out. The other thing is when put the seat in a position that is comfortable for my arms, my legs are too crammed for the pedals, and when i move the seat back my arms are quite stretched reaching the steering wheel. That problem was multiplied for me in a Peugeot 207 gti which i really had trouble driving and another problem i had was with a Skoda Octavia where there was no legroom on the sides, the centre console is too wide and it was a long drive and it was really painful. Back to another issue that was mentioned earlier the dangling keys are very annoying. First time I see some purpose in the renault megane keycard in the centre console. Eventhough i think its a distaster because if ur not used to it, you can leave the car running. I walked out of the car took the keycard, thinking the car had turned off and locked it. The car doesnt lock if the engines running. So i eneded up leaving the car UNLOCKED and RUNNING in the middle of a busy street for about 30 minutes.
