What is the proper hand and body position for backing straight?

Answer 1

First physically walk behind car and check for objects 1) Left hand at 12:00 on steering wheel and body twisted to look out rear window, after checking all mirrors. [Assuming left-hand drive car] 2) With obstructed rear window, such a a loaded truck, whatever hand position is your preference, the old 10:00 and 2:00 is not for everybody, body straight ahead with clear view of mirrors. Do not depend on rear-looking cameras, they have a function to use but not solely.
