I used to see it like this: ignore all the text, the cuffs of the person driving are the wheel arches, the hands are the bodywork/doors, the centre of the steering wheel is where the car logo would be, the gap at the top of the steering wheel is the rear window, the gap at the bottom of the steering wheel is some sort of bumper, the very bottom of the steering wheel is the bottom of the car.
I know this probably sounds/looks insane to some people I really was convinced it was the back of a car for 10+ years
