  • Patent number: 4946013
    Abstract: A device for manually operating the brake and accelerator pedals of a vehicle. The device is removably clamped to each of the conventional brake and accelerator pedals of a vehicle and includes a control lever that extends between respective pivot points that are fixed relative to and spaced outwardly from each of the brake and accelerator pedals. The control lever includes an outwardly extending portion that extends beyond the brake pedal in a direction opposite from the accelerator pedal, and a control handle is pivotally connected at the outer end of the lever extension. The control handle is operable by the user, and when pulled in a direction toward the user the device causes the braking actuator to move in a brake releasing direction while simultaneously causing the accelerator to open the throttle and thereby permit the vehicle to move.
