steering wheel
Turn it left
A steering wheel is the circular device a driver grips and turns to control a vehicle's direction.
In cars, it sits in front of the driver's seat; in boats, it's called a helm or ship's wheel.
Someone at the steering wheel or behind the wheel is in control—literally driving, or figuratively in charge of an endeavor.
