hehe... I think the south auckland one should be:
2 hands on wheel, both feet standing on the ground, trying to find out where the rest of your car is (it's been stripped/stolen)

HAHAHA!

BUt I think that the Wellington one should be:

Both hands on wheel, hair standing up on end with fright at how steep and windy the narrow little roads are, one eye on the road, one eye practically out of the socket searchign for a parking place (which there are none of). *grins* yep, that's welmington/welly/whichever adoring name you have for it.

Haha, that's good.
