Back off. Truly wasn't meant to be racist. It just doesn't look comfortable. I was driving in today and noticed that many blacks drive this way, and thought it might have something to do with a difference in skeletal make-up and comfort.

I know this wasn't meant to be racist. I'm black and a lot of my family does it too. It's because we're most comfortable leaning to one side and slouching slightly in the seat and the lean is usually to the left. Why? Because most people in the world, not just blacks, are right-handed. If they drive with only one hand on the wheel, it's usually the right, the left arm is propped on the window sill or on the door rest. Hands switch temporarily when the need to shift gears comes around. It's to be in a relaxed comfortable position that's easier on our backs than sitting straight up. And as long as we can see, we're cool. Is that what you mean?

It's because their sock on the opposite leg is pulled up higher, throwing off the center of balance.

Why don't you walk up to one ask them and stop trying hide behind your computer screen.
That'll save all your energy and you can get a good answer without even having to turn on your computer.
Have fun!!!

It's descent*, and why is this question presented as "africans" and not just some people?
Why did you ask this dumb a** question? Why do YOU do what you do?
Idiot.

Because your momma just gave them such a great time, they can't sit up straight.

Oh please. In your book they probably do that so they don't drip fried chicken grease or watermelon juice in their laps. Get a life.
