Size and speed of the vehicle is totally irrelevant.
If you don't have both hands on the wheel you do NOT have control of the vehicle.
Only exception is if you need a hand to operate another...
Well it's not really necessary, just convenient. And it is definitely NOT OK - you should have both hands with a good grip of the wheel at all times except when you need to do something like change...
Cordless ones are handy for little jobs but not suited to any decent grinding where it will going for a bit. They probably both have just as much potential to cause damage / injury i would reckon. ...
