I'm an old geezer. Was tought to drive by my father, an old fighter pilot in War 2 and a traveling salesman with lots of highway time.

At age 55 I wound up with the Phoenix Fire Dept riding their crisis wagons. Part of the training was to be taught how to drive THEIR way.

I loved it. Learned lots I'd never known.

Key is driving with my hands on the bottom of the steering wheel, in my lap, and spinning the wheel from hand to hand to make turns, while the hands stay down in my lap.

This was for their 9 passenger vans, not for fire trucks.

Anyway it worked so well its become the way I drive without thinking about it for the past 6 years.

I'm finding that when I wear my sporran while I'm driving my hands frequently bump into the sporran, or even hang up on it.

Guess I could pull the sporran to one side when I drive.

Anyone else out there get what I'm talking about? Hosehead? Any other fire/police/emergency types taught to drive like that and have a similar problem with their sporran?
