Abstract
A plea for better automotive design which would benefit car drivers. Better design would include rearrangement of dashboard, a more flexible steering wheel, and improved seat adjusting tracks.
The automotive designer has an obligation to provide maximum adjustment of seat, steering wheel, and pedal relationship. Ability to adjust these things to any size driver has barely increased, although the amount of different sized drivers has. Greater flexibility of these instruments would be also insure safer driving.
