Driver Posture Guide
Why Drivers Develop Posture Problems
Sitting in the same position for long periods while reaching for the steering wheel pushes shoulders forward, and pressing pedals tilts the pelvis. Professional drivers face significant neck and back strain.
Common Driver Posture Problems
Forward head (neck pushed forward for visibility), round shoulder (arms reaching for steering wheel), lower back pain (poor seat angle compressing lumbar), pelvic asymmetry (one leg pressing pedals) are most common.
Posture Tips While Driving
Set backrest angle to 100-110 degrees. Place a cushion at the lumbar area for support. Hold steering wheel with slightly bent elbows. Adjust headrest to ear level.
Rest and Stretching
Stop every 2 hours for 5-10 minutes of stretching. Neck rotations, chest openers, and torso twists are effective. When you get out, stand with feet shoulder-width apart and stretch fully.
