To palmspin is to use your palm on one spot of the steering wheel to turn it rapidly more than once in one direction, often accompanied by using the right hand on the seat next to you to turn and look what's behind you when reversing. This common maneuver is an easy and fast way to spin the wheel with one hand when the other hand is bracing your torso so you can turn around to look behind you.
Cmon man, Hugh Grant didn't mean to hit the papparazzi with his car, he just had lube on his hands so he couldn't palmspin the wheel!
