Thanks for making this vid Chris. Bilateral amputee here and was looking into options for driving. This helped a lot. Best wishes to you and everyone in the comments.

Thanks, Chris. I also use those same controls to drive. You demonstrated it well. Thanks for helping others.

Thanks for doing this video. I have MS and I am looking at different models of hand controls. Your video is by far the most informative on here. I appreciate it very much. I'll keep you in my prayers Chris. Take care and God bless you.

Hey Chris useful video inspiring to see you overcome the task of driving. I’m also incomplete quadriplegic since 1973, I’m still killing it mate, 47 years later and I’m about to fit hand controls to my new car.

Thank you brother Chris. I will be ordering this system soon . I haven't driven in 7 years it's going to be good to have my Independence back again. God is so good. Keep On keepin On Chris.

Thanks for the video. I have MS and it’s getting hard using my legs and feet. This definitely showed me the options out there. Thanks Chris!

Well done! Prayers for continued success and bless you for making this video for others.

Thank you Chris! I just bought mine & I was scared too death. I walk & maneuver the same way. I will view your video again when I get my courage together. God bless you~

Hey! I got it on Ebay.

Hey everybody, if you need hand controls look into the pedal Master much more easier to put on and take off. I have been using them for 20 years. Thanks for the great video Chris.

That is so true Chris the foot is stronger but the hand is faster. You have really encouraged me to go on and see what the end will be.

Very helpful, great video, helping a lot of people, thank you very much

Thank you Chris for sharing this video. :)

That is awesome. Im a new right leg amputee and i just got my lisc using a portable left footed accelerator and im a diabetic and losing feeling in my left foot more and more. So im gonna need to do something different eventually. Your video showed me a new way. Keep fighting

Very good. Clear and well spoken intruction

Great Video, Thanks Chris.

Hi Chris and thank you for this demo video. I am from Iraq. I wish there was such a device in my country

Stay strong, man! 💪🏻

Congratulations cousin.

That was very helpful...I would love to meet you and get a driving lesson or at get information on where you bought your equipment.

Thanks Chris!

Thanks Chris-very useful video. I'm getting ready to install my first set of hand controls after driving left-footed for 50 years with polio. People would have more confidence in Freedom Staff if they had a video like this on their own website. Ken

Thank you sooooooo much. I've been debated which controls to get. I have Rheumatoid Arthritis and the pain in my feet makes it impossible to drive. With RA, I also have some limited use with my hands. This video answered the question of which type would work best for me. I truly appreciate that you shared this.

Great video I think it's time for me to get behind the wheelchair. Thank you

I have MS as well and looking into hand controls. I like the idea of the portable controls over the permanent because of cost and convenience of my traveling.

Hello Chris, How are you ? I got my hand controls and installed them in 10 minutes. I like them. It feels so good to drive again. Thank you for help and support.

Thank you Chris for responding. I will shop around also. The set you have can also be adjusted to use in any car. Right ? If you get a chance type in ( Ayan putting wheelchair in truck.) on you tube. That's me determined to do this with no legs.

Okay Chris Thank You

Thanks Chris

What's gd Chris ? Gd looking out with the video ~ I'm looking forward to getting back behind the wheel as well

Still got that seat reclined waaay back. Lol

Please let me know how often you need to retighten the clamps on the pedals.

Thanks for this video, I at the point where I have to make a choice and saving on the cost is always helpful, even though Im being told these portable ones are not good for everyday or long term use. That is my main concern. How often do you go out and drive?

I have different controls but I enjoy getting on the road.

Ms. White, I have the PHC 3 hand controls. If you have enough strength to raise your are straight up and or open a door, then these hand controls wiłll be suitable for you.

Thank you for doing this video! I have a prosthetic on my right leg and I'm in the process of buying a set of hand controls. My only concern was the fitment, being that I am 6'2". But I can see that it is not a problem because you're 6'3".

Did you ever try a left foot accelerator? I can drive my pickup pretty normally, but have a harder time with my Terrain and Lucerne for leg room and so forth. For me the left foot accelerator works fine. Maybe because I am used to driving a tractor I can easily use either foot.

Cool video, Chris. I'm a t6 paraplegic and have been driving for years and still haven't made a video yet. This is really motivational. By the way I have gone through several types of hand controls. Once I even rigged my own out of cannibalized parts from an old set, a cane and an aluminum rod. I wouldn't necessarily recommend anyone else try that, but I'm unstoppable!

Made me a set out of 3/8" threaded rods drilled holes in the pedals bolted them on and bent the other end at 90deg. angles and put some black tape on them. Before that I drove with a cane. T-7 para.

I am delighted this video could help encourage you. I appreciate your prayers and I will do the same for you. Look forward to more help videos.

Where did u get that driving stick on the steering wheel

@ Mr. Hargrove, called R&R Vans in Conyers, Ga. They have a website so I suggest you Google the name.

Is it hard to pass the drivers license road test? Much respect!

Ihinnna, I am sure that wherever you are, the driving school should allow you to use whatever accommodations you need.

Want to ask you if in small town u don t find driving school using hand control are we allow to bring our . I am in canada if any one know how it s work ?

Hi Chris! I have spastic Cerebral Palsy my right hand/arm is very weak do you think these hand controls will be suitable for me? I want to learn to drive.

Hello there, Already, I like your attitude. It is difficult for me to judge whether or not these particular hand controls will work for you. What makes them work for me regarding my grip and strength, is that my right hand tightens automatically (muscle tone) when I begin to utilize it. As far as my strength and my ability to push the hand controls for brakes and pull for gas, for me, it's somewhat easy. However, the more you drive the easier it gets. Stay motivated. Thanks for viewing.

Hey Chris I seen everyone is using their left hand to use the hand control, but you are using it with your right. I'm like you I sterl with my left so I can use the stick with right then???

Do we have to use right hand or can we use left?

i am very scared to get out on the road because my whole i have been always driven somewhere by someone i am going to get me the controls but i am still afraid. where did you get yours and how much practice did you take before going out to get you licence?

TripleC- Crayz, Crazier & Cool I am sure you will be find. Take your necessary precautions, have someone with you & create a safety plan, such as the passenger is prepared to take over the wheel or intercede in pushing the brakes. A helpful viewer recently posted a link where you can purchase the hand controls.

You just need to find an area where you can simply practice like a large empty parking lot. Another option is enroll in a driving school to build confidence. I found driving again after losing my right leg is scary, but the more I drive the more confident I am becoming. Start with a simple short route and then drive further as you are comfortable. My late grandmother who had never driven a car until age 62 and able bodied did fine, but also knew her limitations as well but it gave her the independence she needed to stay in her country home after Grandpa died, otherwise she would have had to move to town. You will gain the confidence and do well

What kind of controls do you have?

Where did u get that steering knob been trying to find one forever

Ayan Layo Ayan, The model of the hand controls are the PHC-3. The website I discovered who were selling them is wheelability.com/ However, they were around $379 and you may find them a bit cheaper if you shop around. Best regards, Chris

See hand control system in Kuldip jandu A & B 2 in 1 A B C 3 in 1 by Kuldip jandu

Peddle Master...I got off Allegro Medical. They actually have a yt video

Did you have to go to school to learn how to drive

I could make those hand controls for cheaper

your camera man is not even good
