Seat belts on airplanes
These almost require two functioning hands. Luckily the short end does reach the top of my leg and I can one-handedly get the clip into the buckle after several tries. I have yet to call a flight attendant for help and I probably never will.
I hate to admit it, but I've always found car seatbelts harder to clip - especially in winter, when I'm wearing a sweater, vest, bulky jacket and a mitten - the metal plate hits the clasp, but I can't always get it into the slot. Maybe my unaffected arm just isn't long enough. Plus, I hate having my affected arm under the shoulder belt, so I have to force my unaffected arm (holding the plate) between my torso and my affected arm. Add a mitten on my working hand and the metal is just too slippery.
