Comfort and Convenience
Preferred seating position is personal: some drivers sit upright and close to the wheel, others further back. Build, arm length and long-held habit all feed into it, which is why two people rarely settle on the same setting.
Safety and Driver Assistance
A few minutes before setting off is a sensible time to locate the essentials, among them indicators, wipers, hazard switch and headlight control. Doing this while stationary means nothing has to be hunted for once the car is moving.
Multimedia and Connectivity
Keeping a phone charged through a long day matters in its own right, separate from calls or music: where a charging point is available and easily reached, the battery holds up without the handset being buried in a bag.
