Well, with the steering wheel desk contraption, the monitor is placed in front of the wind shield, looking there is what the front seat is designed for, so that part is neat.
The keyboard however, is over the steering wheel, and while the arm placement is _similar_ to holding the wheel, it's a bit awkward, typing on a keyboard and operating a steering wheel are just quite different movements.
I _think_ it'd be ergonomic if I had some kind of keyboard and mouse/trackpad solution elevated on my lap, but the steering wheel gets in the way of a standard lap desk pillow thing. It'd have to be split.
For my one hour per week I haven't bothered yet. But I do think I could come up with something that'd have similar strain to just driving the car. Which, yeah, is probably not as ergonomic as a good desk setup to begin with.
