Why are Automatic Transmission Cars being the best option for Person with Disability/ Disabled people/ Handicapped people/ Differently abled people

From our years of work with the community of persons with disability, we have found that the best suitable option to drive a car for disabled people is with an automatic transmission car. We consider ourselves capable enough to conclude the idea not just on the basis of professionalism, but also from our personal experience with disability. Mr. Ravi Attri being a user of Hand Controls, himself has driven cars with every type of gearbox available in the market. With his own experience as a person with disability and driving cars with modifications, he has come to the conclusion on the following basis:

Easy or Complicated, what would you prefer?

As being a person with disability in India is already being a complicated task because of lack of accessibility, would you mind making at least one task of yours a little comfortable and enjoyable? Basically, there are Hand controls for cars by which a disabled person drives a car, it’s also called Hand operated cars. Isn’t it easy to control a single lever rather than two levers and shifting gears all the time? As an automatic car has only two functions, acceleration and break and these both can be operated with a single lever Hand Control. There are various types of Hand Controls present in the market, but the world knows the best looking and performing is our premium Hand Control. A floor mounted Hand Control that keeps your arm at ease. An automatic car eliminates the clutch function and also the gear changing hectic task. We know many of you must be comfortable with your manual transmission cars, however don’t forget we consider everyone in the community. Being a paraplegic and being a quadriplegic are two very different things; people with disability in their legs as well as in their hands makes it very difficult for them to drive a manual transmission car. By our overall analysis and years of experience with so many different kinds of disabilities, we as Mobility Solutions consider Automatic Transmission cars the easiest and most comfortable technology present in the market for differently abled people.

less complicated, least prone to accidents.

Extension of easy or complicated highlights the point of miss happenings, unfortunate instances, those could happen to anyone. At the time of quick action, you might find yourself puzzled with the gears and the Hand Control, but on the other hand, if you are driving an automatic car all you need to take care of is your Hand Control, break and accelerator. For instance, you’re driving on an elevated ground, for example, on a hill station and now you need to stop in between the traffic, a manual car user has to maintain the acceleration with inconsistent traffic, using the breaks while maintaining the clutch and shifting the gears? On the other hand, an automatic car user would just have to maintain the acceleration and break, moreover an automatic car doesn’t fall back even if you’re not applying breaks on an elevated land, as it has its own maintained acceleration that doesn’t let it fall backwards. Therefore, you’re least prone to accidents.

Better to Invest in Advanced Technology

The world is aware of the advanced technology in cars and that’s automatic transmission. Automobile industry came up with this technology to make driving easier and more effective for every individual who wants their driving experience smooth. And who would have known that this technology would work as a blessing for persons with disability. While all over the world the usage and preference of automatic cars have seen, why would we need to choose a manual transmission car? It’s in the convenience of a disabled person to equip himself/herself with the advancement, when it comes to driving. Apparently, there are plenty of reasonable options in the market to go for and for the same information you can also check out another blog, “Best cars with reasonable price in the market for person with disability”.

Four limbs, four functions.

While driving a person uses his four limbs to make a coordination of all the functions in a car. Two hands on a steering or one hand on a gear lever and another on the steering, two legs operate three pedals of clutch, acceleration and break. Now, even if a single limb is compromised, that will hinder the driving regime. Cars for handicapped people are to be customized or modified according to their needs, but a fact that can not be ignored that, “more the functions, more the compromised driving”.

Conclusion:

Mobility Solutions always recommends you to purchase an automatic transmission car in spite of having best solutions for your every need.
