ABSTRACT:
A steering wheel rotating apparatus for physically handicapped persons includes a grip holder having a grip hole and an engaging member projectable from the inside surface of the grip hole. The grip holder is fixed to the steering wheel of an automobile. A rotary grip having a shaft with an insertion part is detachably received in the grip hole and a grip body part mounted on the shaft, and a switch unit having a switch case and switches is detachably fitted to the grip holder, so that a physically handicapped person may operate the steering wheel using the rotary grip and also operate the switches by the hand which is gripping the rotary grip. When a non-physically handicapped person is to operate the steering wheel, the rotary grip and the switch unit may be removed so as not to interfere with steering wheel operation.
