The freedom and independence that driving brings cannot be overstated, especially for someone like me, a C5-C6 quadriplegic. For the past 40 years I have been driving with hand controls. Recently, I discovered a feature in my van, introduced and installed by Universal Motion, that has significantly enhanced my driving experience.
