Hand Controls & Driving Aids

Explore steering and secondary driving aids designed to make operating your vehicle easier, safer, and more comfortable. From spinner knobs and control extensions to customizable multifunction controls, our mobility specialists can help find the right equipment for your driving needs.

Prescription Required for Many Driving Aids

Many adaptive driving aids require a prescription or recommendation from a Certified Driver Rehabilitation Specialist (CDRS) before they can be purchased and professionally installed. Requirements can vary depending on the equipment and the individual driver’s needs.

Our mobility consultants can help you understand the process and determine the next steps. Contact your nearest Superior Van & Mobility location for a free consultation.

Find the Right Hand Control

Hand controls are adaptive driving devices designed to let a person with a mobility impairment operate a vehicle’s brake & accelerator pedals using their hands. They are instrumental in promoting independence and confidence, providing a safe, efficient, and comfortable driving experience for those with impairments. Hand controls are also available to help operate a vehicle’s secondary systems, turn signals, horn, hazards, etc.

Find the Right Driving Aid

Browse our selection of secondary controls and driving aids, or filter by control type to quickly find the equipment that fits your needs.

Filter by Control Type:

FeatherLite Push/Rock (FL1 / FL5)

An electronic-assist Push/Rock hand control that brakes when pushed toward the dashboard and accelerates when rocked toward the floor. It connects directly to the vehicle’s electronic throttle and eliminates the mechanical gas rod.

FeatherLite Push/Right Angle (FL2 / FL6)

A short-stroke electronic-assist hand control that brakes when pushed toward the dashboard and accelerates when the handle is pulled down toward the driver’s lap. The main body and brake rod remain stationary during acceleration.

FeatherLite Push/Pull (FL3 / FL7)

A short-stroke electronic-assist Push/Pull control that brakes when pushed toward the dashboard and accelerates when pulled toward the driver. Its angled handle and pivot location provide leverage with very little accelerator resistance.

FeatherLite Push/Twist (FL4 / FL8)

A motorcycle-style electronic-assist control that brakes when pushed toward the dashboard and accelerates with a twisting motion. An auxiliary handle makes the twist easier and more comfortable for longer drives.

Right-Angle Hand Controls

A mechanical system with a horizontal handle that accelerates when pulled down toward the driver’s legs and brakes when pushed toward the dashboard. The control body remains stationary while the handle pivots.

Push-Pull Hand Controls

A straightforward mechanical hand-control system with a horizontal handle on either side of the steering wheel. The driver pulls the handle toward themselves to accelerate and pushes it toward the dashboard to brake.

Push-Rock Hand Controls

A mechanical accelerator-and-brake system with a vertical handle that can be installed on either side of the steering wheel. The driver rocks the handle back to accelerate and pushes it toward the dashboard to brake.

Push-Twist Hand Controls

A mechanical system with a horizontal handle that may be installed on either side of the steering wheel. The driver twists the handle like a motorcycle throttle to accelerate and pushes it toward the dashboard to brake.
