How I drive as a wheelchair user

In July 2022, I started driving with hand controls. I got my hand controls from a company called Viegel Automotive and had the eClassic Installed on My New VW T-Cross. I also have a transfer plate from Jeff Gosling and have a AutoChair boot strap so I can easily close the boot door from my wheelchair.

Wow, those hand controls look much higher tech than the ones I used to use when I was driving, I just had push pull hand controls with a steering ball and an indicator switch.

Hi Owen, you can still get the push/pull ones. They were an option for me but I tried them but then discovered these more techie ones 😂 so when with these, 1. Because my mum drives it to and it was less bulky and 2. It looks cooler 😅

@@abievans Thanks for the reply, I agree they look much cooler 😅

Hi Abi, great video. Can I ask how you found out about the different hand controls. Did you have a driving assessment at a UK centre?
