Hands at 10 and 2 ... not any more!

I was suprised to read this...and will have to unlearn a pretty hard habit....

"She spends a lot of time showing students new safe driving techniques that were not taught to older generations. For instance, she said, if the steering wheel is seen as a clock, "you want your hands at 8 and 4. Most of us have been taught 9 and 3 or 10 and 2." Why the change? Because new air bags explode so fast that if your hands are not low enough on the steering wheel, the deploying bag will knock your hands into your face, breaking all kinds of bones.
