9 and 3

and lower has been the standard since 1992

Very odd is the 8 and 4 position

That position is unnatural. Some advocates are also saying anywhere between 7 and 9 for left hand, and 3 and 6 for right hand. That seems to be even harder. What they are looking for is no "hand over hand" to turn the wheel because in the event of a crash your arms are in the way of the air bag.
I'll stick with 9 and 3. I'm used to that.

I read a safety article that said not higher than 9 and 3. The reasoning is that if you are in an accident and the airbag inflates it can cause a lot of damage to your hands, including breaking bones and a worst case of degloving.

phone

Do you drive and use The phone on the right or left hand.?

Lower on Steering Wheel, and Hands Free Phone

Since I've had an airbag, I've learned to hold the lower part of the steering wheel. It's more comfortable and natural to me anyway.

No hands for holding the phone while driving. Illinois is a hands free only state. I still see people driving while talking on the phone or even worse, texting, but it is all illegal now. It all must be hands free.

I'm usually doing a crossword or sudoku or knitting whe I drive, so my knees are frequently on the wheel....
