I have recently noticed a trend for young people, especially those who for whatever reason seem possibly up to no good, to sit very low in the driving seat.
The driving position seems very awkward requiring very stretched arms and legs, and with limited views out. I imagine that this is partly related to avoid being seen, but from my perspective I spot it easily and wonder what is going on.
Why do I think they are up to no good? Mainly because I see this during the day when normal people of that age are in work, or if driving are sitting normally, driving sensibly. Usually I spot these examples because they have just done something stupid like drive very fast in traffic and cut several people up.
I can't help thinking this is drug culture at work. A number of people who work in the black economy, whose cars are possibly not insured and are a danger. but equally, they could work in the evenings and need to find something to do during the day. Just wish they would do it elsewhere . ..but still, why sit so low.?

Thinking too hard again, Esp? Make yourself some nice jasmine tea and breathe slowly. 🍵

I think, I don't know of course, but I think they think it's cool. Sort of similar to the seating position adopted by BTC racers? Must be hellish difficult to park sitting like that. Or perhaps there are just a lot of small people with aggressive driving tendencies. Often driving with their hoods up too. Perhaps they're elves?

It's just youth fashion, you know like the Lindy Hop, jiving, the Charleston, all those things you might remember and your parents disapproved of.

Nothing new, though perhaps not quite in the same way: a childhood memory of Farnham in the 50s was a large Daimler Conquest driven either by a huge retired colonel, Col. Anderson, with a trilby hat.... or apparently by nobody. In reality it was Mrs Anderson, no more than five feet tall. I don't suppose you could adjust the seat for height, although she must have brought it forward.
