Do you let your hand hang outside the window?

It is very dangerous to hang your hand outside the window when you in a vehicles. I know the hand would feel cool and comfortable when outside the windows but do you want your hands hurt?

Nope, i'm afraid to do that, i'm afraid in accident. hanging your hand outside the window is prone to accident. my mom used to say that to me when i was a kid. Now i knew the importance of my mom's teaching.

I never hang my arm out the car window and I hate seeing other people do it. I always think, gee they're gonna lose that arm.
My friend has a cousin that works in the emergency department and she see's people being admitted all the time for damage done to their arms from hanging it out of car windows.

My Dad was in a vehicle accident when he was a teen, his hand was outside the car window he lost two fingers and the entire back of his hand. He had to undergo numerous skin grafts to help repair the back of his hand. There was four people in the car and he was the driver he was also lucky because two of the passengers did not survive. So no i NEVER put my hand outside a moving vehicle of any type, and anyone riding in a vehicle that i am driving doesn't either! I have actually pulled off the road and refused to move until my niece placed her hand back in the car.

No. I never keep my arms or part of body out side the vehicle. My parents thought me that how dangerous it can be.

Hi I_LUV_U, i dodnot think this fair and godd for oneself, this may lead to an dangerous accident and one may got serious injury. i always avoid such situation and always take care that such incident should not happen. thanks for posting such a nice disscusion.

I do not do so and I told my daughter not to do so. Though I have not witnessed any accident for such habits but after marriage my husband has witnessed such accident. He was returning from his office by a public bus. Suddenly a painful cry arose and the passengers noticed that a fellow passenger is crying and his right hand totally wounded. They went to a nearby hospital. Many of the passengers were there till midnight. The doctors tried but amputed the right hand. My husband and other passengers gave him blood.

So, please be careful before hanging your hands outside the car window. This is my appeal to all mylotters, their family members and friends.

Yes, I have often allowed my hand to rest on the open window of my car, but mostly on country roads, not very often in the city. However, I rarely open the window now, because my car has air-conditioning. The wonders of the modern motor car!:-)

It's very dangerous. I will not do it . But when I ' m young I like stretch my hand and head out of the window.
I really don't know why I want to do . Every time my mother warn me,DON'T LAY YOUR HAND AND HEAD OUT WINDOW.
Now, I think my mom is right . Because you don't know whether a car behind your vehicle .If you lay your hand out of window suddenly,and a car are ready to overtake . I think the result is terrible .

If I have a child, I will never let him do it .

So how does it feel to be warned out by a young girl. Looks like our young people are growing up in good way (at least for this girl).

Anyway going back to your topic, I also had this habit of hanging my hand out of the vehicle. Though I do this whenever I drive my car. I usually run the car for some kilometers without air conditioned just to heat up the engine. Due to the hot weather in my country I will bring down the window all the way down then I will place my hand outside touching the top of the car. So far I still have my hand and nothing bad or accident had happened. But thanks also for reminding me about this same habit we have.
