This shows a typical 'right hand' push/pull hand control where by the push/pull lever operates the functions of the brake and accelerator. The lever can be pulled to operate the accelerator, and pushed to brake.
The steering wheel operates in the same way as normal, however, as you can see from the picture we have fitted a detachable 3-pin quad grip to make steering easier for clients who cannot grip the steering wheel.

This shows how the push/pull lever operates. The lever can be adjusted so that the push/pull motions are suited to the individual's strength and range of movement.
We can also fit an infra-red beeper system to the lever of the hand control, which can control certain switches like indicators and windscreen wipers. The one shown in the picture is a 12-way beeper system that can be programmed to suit the individual. (please see the Driving Controls main menu, and Infra-red Beeper-secondary controls for more information).

This is showing a 'left hand' push/pull hand control fitted in combination with a "small diameter Mountney steering wheel" and an infra-red switching system. Like the 'right hand' push/pull hand control the 'left hand' one is operated in the same way, and can also be customised to suit the individual.
The Mountney steering wheel is smaller in diameter than most conventional steering wheels, and it is usual to "lighten" the power steering efforts. Steering Developments provide a unique service of being able to measure a clients steering efforts and engineer the cars power steering to suit.

This picture is the Radial hand control an alternative solution to having the push/pull hand controls. It operates by pulling the lever down and round, in the direction of the arrow on the picture to operate the accelerator, and pushing forwards to brake. We can also fit an indicator switch dependant on the individual needs.

Please Note:
- All types of hand controls can be engineered to suit each individual's strength and range of movement.
- All types of hand controls can be placed on either the right or left hand side, dependent on the individual requirements.
- All hand control systems allow the use of the original brake and accelerator pedals by able bodied drivers.
