Comfort and Convenience
Seating position is a personal preference. Some drivers like sitting high for a clear view forward, others sit lower and further back; body proportions and long habit both play a part, so one person's ideal rarely suits the next.
Safety and Driver Assistance
It is worth spending a moment before setting off to locate the hazard lights, demister and wiper controls. Sorting that out while stationary means less improvising later, when weather or traffic leaves little spare attention.
Multimedia and Connectivity
Phone battery is the usual concern on an errand day spent following navigation. Where a charging point is available, topping up across a series of short hops keeps the phone usable for the rest of the day.
