Left Foot Accelerator
The left foot accelerator consists of 2 hinged pedals connected by a cable. It will have been set up in such a way as to ensure it is only possible to have one of the pedals down at any time. To deploy the required pedal, simply pull it down into position and the other pedal will flip up out of the way.

The handset can be used on the wheel at any angle you prefer. It can be tilted in nearer the hand, so it's easier to reach the buttons. It can also be adjusted after fitting.

Wheelchair hoists are generally much easier to use to lift wheelchairs and scooters into a car than using ramps - and there are big subsidies for Motability drivers.
