A kid i played baseball with had a father that was a double amputee and the controls were easily removed when someone else had to drive the vehical. If you are injured in a fashion that is temporary, driving may not be in the best interest. a lot of people that use hand controls have been doing so and probably learned to drive a car that way. I’m sure its not the easiest thing to just learn like that especially if ur handicap is a recent injury. tru…i 4got about that :doh: …on my DL its marked driving equipment & automatic…and i learned to drive with this stuff too --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/hand-controls-for-cars/186646)._
