In an airbag-equipped vehicle, the safest hand position on the steering wheel is: C a) 90' clock and 3 o'clock C b) 10 o'clock and 4 o' clock 100' clock and 40' c) 11 o' clock and 1 o'clock d) Hand position has no bearing on safety in an airbag-equipped vehicle

The correct answer is c) 11 o'clock and 1 o'clock.<br /><br />In an airbag-equipped vehicle, the safest hand position on the steering wheel is at the 11 o'clock and 1 o'clock positions. This position allows for better control of the steering wheel while also minimizing the risk of injury from an airbag deployment. When the airbag inflates, it does so from the center of the steering wheel, and having your hands at the 11 o'clock and 1 o'clock positions ensures that they are not directly in the path of the inflating airbag. This position also provides a good grip on the steering wheel for better control during emergency maneuvers.
