How good are you with your less-dominant hand?

Right hand would be best.
But I am still slightly decent with my left.

Like when I'm working for instance.

Decent, because my left hand handles the strings and such while playing bass.

One-handed driving wouldn't be a problem with me either side, but I'd probably be using my right hand just because of my tendency to stick my arm out the window. Provided I was driving an automatic.
I just realized...as to how interesting it'd be to watch someone drive a left-hand drive configured car that has a Manual Transmission, and use only their left hand.

Lulz/crashing/oshimoments might ensue heheheh... >=3

I'm right handed, but I can use my left hand for a variety of things. I'm not particularly ambidextrous, but if I worked on my writing a bit more I could say I do. I actually throw lefty because I have better control. Videogames, piano/music and typing certainly helped with this.
I can see how that could work...

Oh yeah, I can snap my fingers on my left hand, but not so well with my right.
I really hate how I've made more than 12,000 posts here. Thankfully this swaying, moving Chandelure makes it all worth it.

I can snap with both hands, with both my middle and ring fingers.

As for driving, I usually keep my right hand on my gear shift.

I'm gonna be conflicted driving a standard. I don't know if I can do it without having my arm out the window.

I'm right-handed. To give you an idea of my level of ambidexterity, here is a list:

  • I can write sloppily but legibly at a decent speed with my left hand
  • I can play music videogame guitar/bass and drums on lefty expert for the most part (nothing too difficult though)
  • I can hold my own in a sword fight fighting lefty (you know, fooling around with lightsabers and whatnot)
  • I eat finger foods with only the index finger and thumb of my left hand (I don't use my right hand at all)
  • I use silverware the so-called "European" style (i.e. knife in dominant hand, don't switch utensils when picking up food)
I dunno hao 2 put imgs heer :(

Oh yeah, I play guitar/bass on guitar hero/rock band left-handed. Without Lefty Flip. Don't ask, it's easier for me this way than any other way.

And I've tried that "European" thing as you called it. Not too bad at it.

Right. That's what I meant. I play the controller left-handed but keep the screen the right way (literally). I have a friend that's lefty that does the same thing. It really is easier to read the notes the normal way. To be clear, I normally play righty everything. The lefty stuff is just the example of my level of ambidexterity.

On a side note, if you ever find yourself having to play on lefty mode for some reason, stand up (if you're not already), face the opposite direction of the screen, bend over all the way, and look at the screen through your legs. Just be careful of blood rushing to your head and whatnot.

Yeah the only thing I do left-handed dominantly is Guitar Hero/Rock Band. People think it's weird that I don't use lefty flip... but when I do.. yeah, it just seems backwards. It makes no sense.

I am right handed, though I do a couple things left handed, like playing hockey or eating. My mom is partially to blame since she taught me a lot of things while she herself is left handed.
