They go by many different names: spinners, steering wheel knobs and suicide knobs.
A spinner is basically a knob which attaches to the steering wheel of a vehicle. It is intended to be used in situations where maneuvering is excessive. It allows the driver to turn the steering wheel more quickly to place the vehicle in an intended position.
They are extremely useful when backing up a vehicle, particularly a tractor trailer.
Why are they sometimes called suicide knobs? Back in the days when there was no power steering, drivers who used a steering wheel knob, would get injured when the wheel snapped back after vigorously turning it. Now, this doesn't happen, as the steering in most all vehicles is power steering.
Dave does a demonstration of using a spinner when backing up a tractor trailer.

We have indeed tested these spinners and use them in our Peterbilt.
We would not recommend something to our fellow truckers, which we would not use ourselves.
