You might also need a steering aid if you have other hand controls fitted.

These are control panels with remote control devices, on your steering wheel. You can use them to work things like your indicators, wipers, and headlights.

This can also include a steering aid so you can steer and operate your vehicle with one hand.

Hand controls

These are useful if you find braking or accelerating difficult. You push or pull a level to control the speed of your vehicle.

There are many types of hand controls.

These might help if you have limited mobility in your legs.

There are many different types of electronic accelerators and they all come with a hand-controlled brake.
