Vehicle Controls
A driver should be able to locate and operate selected secondary controls of the vehicle (such as wipers, turn signal, and horn), set and release the parking brake, and fully turn the steering wheel, without difficulties.
A driver should be able to operate these vehicle controls safely and efficiently. Adaptive devices are available to assist drivers with turning the steering wheel or operating secondary controls such as the turn signals, and horn.
An occupational therapy practitioner or driver rehabilitation specialist can provide further guidance.
