" My name is Kevin Woods on behalf of expertvillage.com; phone number is (314) 584-0116. There are three things that you actually do. The first thing is make sure you are comfortable in your seat, make sure you adjust your seat to where you are most comfortable, make sure your mirrors are set and this is your rear view and two side mirrors, make sure when you look at your rear view mirror that your head is looking straight and that you only move your eyes to look out of your mirror because you don't use a lot of physical energy. When you drive, more mental energy than anything. The third thing y you want to do is make sure you are strapped in; make sure that you have your seat belt on. How you actually get comfortable in your seat is put your left leg on that pad over that and make sure that you are measuring to where if you have to reach up for it, then you are too far back. So our leg/feet should be comfortable on your pad and that way you will be comfortable in your seat and that is important you are most important comfortable and that your steering wheel is adjusted right for you because of course people are dark and tilt. The tilt should be according to your height after you adjusted your seat. For most short people you don't want the steering wheel way up there; you want to be able to see over your wheel without leaning forward."
