ABSTRACT:
Hand-operated control devices for a motor vehicle comprising a shaft having a first upper end and a second lower end, the shaft having a length adapted to extend from a pedal of a vehicle to a location within the reach of a driver; coupling means for coupling the second lower end of the shaft to a pedal of a vehicle such that the shaft is rotatable and movable with respect to the second end, the coupling means adapted so that it may be removed from the pedal without using any tools; and a handle coupled to the first upper end of the shaft, enabling a driver to apply downward pressure from the handle through the shaft and coupling means in order to depress a pedal. Also included is a second device couplable to a second pedal of a motor vehicle for remote operation of the second pedal.
