What type of screwdriver is especially good to use in tight spaces?

A stubby screwdriver is designed with a shorter handle and a compact head, making it particularly useful in tight spaces where a standard screwdriver might not fit. Its reduced length allows for better maneuverability and access to fasteners that are in confined or awkward locations, such as those found in the engine compartment of a bus or around other components where space is limited.

While flathead and Phillips screwdrivers can be effective for various applications, their standard lengths may make them less suitable for use in tight spaces. A torque screwdriver is specialized for applications requiring precise torque settings but does not inherently possess the compactness needed for tight spaces. Therefore, the stubby screwdriver stands out as the best choice for tasks requiring access in confined areas.
