ABSTRACT:
A column shift adapter is provided for a robotic test driving mechanism. The shift adapter includes first and second clamp blocks adjustably mounted to a base plate. The clamp blocks receive the shift lever through openings provided therein and are tightened down in order to securely mount the shift adapter to the shift lever. The base plate is designed to give way under excessive forces so that damage to the robotic test driving mechanism or the shift lever of the vehicle is avoided.
