I can't wait for the day I get to learn to drive so I can do this kind of thing
I am a new wheelchair user haven't even got my proper one yet and you have helped me so much through my journey helping me realise that I can do more than I think and to believe in myself and not give up!!!!
You my friend are capable of so much more than you realize............. You'll see!
You're going to surprise yourself with how much you can do
I've been using the Amazon controls for about 6 months. They are not amazing but will certainly allow you to drive if you need a rental or to borrow a vehicle.
Just make sure that the grips will notncomeboff the pedals.
I thought everything was temporary? 🤣 Great vid dude. I’ve been using the temporary hand controls for 2 years so I have nothing to compare them to, but they allow me to drive sensibly to the shops. Haven’t hooned in the desert tho 😉
I have permanent controls in my main truck, and they are solid. In my 4x4, I have these Amazon controls, and they work well.
I have used them for 100s of miles with no problem. Just check them now and then that everything is tight.
Great job using the drone footage! You mixed Mafialand with your informative content super well!
Awesome! How much fun was that!?! Great information and vid. Thanks!
Love this dude, lots of dynamic camera angles!
I use that 200 for years not Amazon brand but it looks like that. I'm a big car guy so I have multiple cars and I switch my cars pretty frequently. I don't like fixed items meaning I can switch hands. I even race with mines, I like how I can brake boost launches easier and I can have different height positions like hold wheel and grip the throttle same time or not and have it near my lap, I can sit further or closer and better reach with it and my old one Initially injured had it sat behind the wheel it did not feel good for me. Plus when I get it service or wife's drives it's completely gone for them
Same here. Mine are a little different than those temporary controls, but I can use mine on the left or right side of the steering wheel, and can hold onto the wheel and the controls at the same time. I’ve been using them for about 4 years.
I’m heading to the USA for the first time in a few weeks and have hired a car to drive from Disney to Busch gardens - good to see before I go the type of hand controls I’ll probably be using. Great vid! Any time I seem to need some wheelchair user info, you have done a vid that helps! Thanks bud!
I changed to Veigel hand controls about 10 years ago and would not use anything else. I use the Classic version which mounts on the right side & to the seat bolts. They’re out of the way when getting in and out of my car and I can tilt the steering wheel down as far as it can go without hitting the hand controls. Cool video and thanks for sharing.
Great video! I have neuropathy in my feet and had to stop driving a little over a year ago. In two days I'm getting my hand controls installed in my car. I can't wait to get back on the road!
I would not want to get into a car with a driver using those flimsy hand controls! Great video, as usual!
I've recently discovered your videos nad have enjoyed them. Thanks for your efforts! One question I do have is, can you drive with your feet? You seem to have quite a bit of lower-body control. I ask because I drive with my left foot due to a SCI in 1995. I've never used hand controls and was curious about your decision to use them.
Welcome to AZ. Check out the highline and interpretive trails in rim country (Payson)....interpretive is accessible and new.
I love my band controls but where I'm so short my seat is really far forward and high up so I'm always bashing my knees on it when I'm getting out or going over speed bumps 🤣
Yes those permanent hand controls you have are great. They are much safer than the "Portable" or "removable" controls. I use both for two different vehicles. The permanent hand controls you have are actually manufactured 20 mins from where I live. Great owner great company.
Can you please more make video about to handicap driving control it's really very help for us
where do I buy your usual hand contorls? Any websites?
You can google hand controls in your area to find sellers/installers. Most states require you to get a prescription from a special type of occupational therapist that certifies that you can use hand controls. That cost’s around $450. Then you can go to the installer to get them installed in your vehicle. Mobilityworks is a big nationwide installer. None of the installers will just sell you hand controls. It’s a very lucrative weird business/industry.
@@chrissawyer49 thanks Chris, I'm currently living in Europe so I assume the laws are a little different, I've looked into it and will be testing some before I buy one!
I recently had hand controls fitted to my car! One month in, took it 4wding 👌👌👌
Hang on to the amazon set. They're OK for test drives.
Dude, you totally gotta come to Utah. We've got REAL Jeep trails, man! (But then you'll need a real Jeep too. 😜)
Been a while !
Idk if you heard of quicksticks but i tested them to 140mph and they held up. Also they held up to extremely hard braking.
I have never thought to use hand controls. That sounds stupid now but it is something to consider.
You have more nerves than I do.
I definitely prefer my permanent hand controls
You found your way back from...in the middle of nowhere?
I have Sportaid portable hands control for 25 years and they work great I used them permanently. They look a lot better than those.
I would never use the Amazon hand controls to used to “real” hand controls that were installed by a professional shop.
I don't know if I'll ever be able to drive a car, cuz I have a light sensitivity and my glasses only go so far. I can drive a motorcycle, or a moped, since my helmet has additional shading, but you need a car license to get a motorcycle license in my state so I'm stuck with my moped for now 🤣
I had to try temporary ones after my car was in for repairs...
One short trip later I decided I'd manage without, till I got my car back..
Absolutely awful zero confidence.
Is your Jeep still in one piece Richard ??
It looked like a lot of fun btw .
I was wondering the same thing 😅
You just caused irreversible damage to that desert habitat. Good job!
You just caused irreversible damage to your 14 year old ego! Good job!
@@gabrielarriens Facts are facts. Try using then instead of childish insults. The irony is funny though. Thanks for the laugh.
Do you live in a building? That caused irreversible damage to the habitat. Do you drive outside on roads? You contribute to irreversible damage to a habitat. Moving some dirt around on a desert track is not ruining the habitat. A storm with wind and rain alters that habitat more than he did. The saying there’s always that one person, and you are that one person that has to come in with a dumb troll comment.
@@chrissawyer49 Oh boy, another "what about" idiot with dumb arguments. You aren't an expert. SMDH
@@chrissawyer49 Do you know people are murdered every day? So according to your logic, since they are it's perfectly fine to commit murder. According to experts it IS damaging the habitat. And for what? To feed or house someone, or for shits and giggles? All you are doing is advertising how uneducated you are. When I see people like you, I think it's good thing we will be extinct soon. Your children and grandchildren are going to suffer horribly because of YOUR head in the ground attitude. Good job. Moron.
OK, somehow my comment got deleted. You were definitely pushing it in this video. 😘😉👏👏👏
sheeeeesh
If you are able to walk and move your legs somewhat. Why are you not able to drive without hand controls?
From watching his "how I walk" video, I don't think he has enough ankle control or fine movement to safety drive that way.
@@FlyToInfinity looks like he has more movement than I do and I drive without hand controls. Granted I do drive with both feet.
Annnnd ... Weeeeee!
