What are Hand Controls for Driving?

If you have limited mobility, the traditional brake and gas pedal setup might not suit your needs. Vehicle hand controls provide a safe alternative, allowing you full control of your car on the Aurora and Lakewood roads. While there are many types of hand controls for driving, most setups involve levers mounted near one side of the steering wheel. Some drivers prefer a knob attached directly to the wheel to allow for one-hand steering. There are many choices for hand controls in car mobility systems, so let’s go through a few.

What are the Different Hand Controls in a Car?

From manual to electronic hand controls, there’s no shortage of options available for Englewood drivers. While different drivers have different preferences, there are adaptive solutions to suit anyone, and we’ll make sure you find just the right one. Here are some of the most commonly used hand controls in car setups.

• Manual Hand Controls: Manual vehicle hand controls involve systems like handles, levers, and pivot points. The primary hand control handles the gas and brakes, while the secondary control takes care of other functions – air conditioning, windshield wipers, and more.

• Electronic Hand Controls: Electronic hand controls use technology to initiate movement. Some systems control gas and brakes through twisting motions like a motorcycle, while others rely on pushing and pulling grips to control power output.

We also offer installation and tips for driving with hand controls, so you can feel confident when you get out on the roads.
