What's the difference between the top and bottom picture here? If you said the angle of the driver's arms, you'd be correct. One of our students today was setting themselves up and preparing for their lesson today when it was noticed by the instructor that the student's arms were bent almost 90° to the steering wheel. After looking over where the driver had positioned themselves to drive, the instructor realized the steering wheel was too close to the student and that too needed to be adjusted. So before leaving, the instructor had the student adjust the steering column to better suit the driver by pushing the steering wheel away from them. Thereby giving the student a safe distance between them and the steering wheel. When setting up a car to drive, you want to make sure you have plenty of space between you and the steering wheel to ensure that there is ample room for the airbag to deploy if such a need arises. If you're too close to bag and it goes off, it may not fully inflate enough to do it's job if your in a wreck. So give the wheel some space and keep your hands apart so they don't block the bag either. Remember, "10&2"
