Abstract: A speed-control device for attachment to the floorboard of a motor vehicle is disclosed which allows for the hand-operation of the acceleration and braking systems of the motor-vehicle, thereby assisting in making the motor vehicle more easily and readily operable by individuals having injured or disabled feet or legs. The device comprises a mounting bracket that supports a hand-operated lever and separate acceleration and brake levers, the latter two levers being attached to separate acceleration control and brake control cables, respectively, which in turn are attached to acceleration and brake assemblies, respectively.

Abstract: An attachment for an automobile is disclosed which enables handicapped persons to operate a vehicle with hand applied power and without foot operation of the pedals. A mounting bracket is set forth. It has a supporting structure which connects with a pair of upstanding tabs, a rotatable shaft serving as a pivot point supported by said stubs, and a pivotally mounted lever connected to said shaft. The lever operates a bell crank mechanism. At one side the bell crank mechanism connects with a cable which is connected at the opposite end to the accelerator, carburetor or points in between to speed up the engine speed. At the opposite end of equipment, it connects with a flexible drive cable in a sheath wherein the cable and sheath extend from the installed apparatus under the vehicle and connect with the brake pedal hanger mechanism. This enables a handicap user to apply the vehicle brakes.
