    Usually used as a derogatory term by more experienced drivers.The steering wheel holders use Super Trucker to describe drivers who disagree with any thing they say And some will bring up the 2 stick. If you never drove with one , you aren't a real trucker.

    Basically this. Its pretty much anyone that doesn't operate exactly like them. I've even been called a steering wheel holder simply because I don't drive flat bed. Best to just ignore anyone using that term.

    The “steering wheel holder” thinks his job consists or SHOULD consist only of driving forward on the Interstate.

    First thing I did when I started driving is have a new Legacy seat installed that would tilt Way Back so I wouldn’t be called a Window Licker.
