If the leg is straight and the knee is locked, it reduces the effect of the levers as well as reduces the feeling of the pedals, causing you to put more effort and increasing the risk of damage to the leg in the event of a collision, in addition, a straight leg will break easily, while a bent knee will be easier to bend.

In the case of sitting too close, the knee bends perpendicularly or at a 100-degree angle, the leg does not support the body effectively and also causes poor blood circulation, the knee is also easy to hit the lower part of the dashboard if there is a collision . Proper adjustment will help the driver, when something goes wrong, can handle the brake and clutch pedal quickly and effectively.

Adjust the headrest of the chair so that your ears are level with the center point of the headrest (about 95⁰ - 110⁰).

- Finally, to check if your posture is correct, please fasten your seat belt, then place your left hand on the highest point of the steering wheel, and your right hand put the gear lever to 3. If When doing these operations, your back is still close to the back of the chair, your sitting position is completely correct.
