Comfort and Convenience
Seating position is a personal matter. Height, reach and how upright someone likes to sit vary from person to person, and two drivers sharing one car often settle on noticeably different arrangements.
Safety and Driver Assistance
It is worth learning where the basic controls sit before setting off rather than while moving. Lights, demisters and wipers can be needed at short notice, and a parked minute spent locating them is time well used.
Multimedia and Connectivity
Phone battery is the usual daily concern: a commute that begins with navigation running tends to end with less charge than it started. Where charging is available, topping up en route keeps that manageable.
