Dual Controls Information |
|
Dual
controls are connected by cables or rods to the main clutch and brake
pedals and are sometimes fixed, moving with the main controls, or
static so it won't trap the passenger's/instructor's foot. Our
Universal cable controls are specially designed to eliminate the risk
of trapping feet which could be potentially dangerous.

You
can see in the image above that the pedals are linked behind the
dashboard so the Driving Instructor can, if necessary, take full
control of the brake and clutch pedals instantly to either assist a new
pupil with control of the cars speed and gear changes or, in an
emergency to prevent any kind of accident that would put the occupants
or other road users at risk. As you can imagine, dual controls are a
must for all instructor vehicles including cars, buses or lorries to
ensure a safe working environment. |
|
Dual
controls take approximately 2 to 4 hours to fit depending on the type
of system you have chosen and the make of vehicle you are using for
driver instruction. If you request a mobile mechanic to carry out the
installation please ensure there is room to open both front doors of
your vehicle at the fitting location. As with many other vehicle
accessories, the installation of dual controls may restrict access to
vehicle components that need periodic replacement or access. Part or
all of the controls may need removal to replace or access parts e.g
pollen filters, fuses etc. You or your pupils will not notice any
difference in the operation of the vehicle pedals. Manufacturer instructions may include drilling.
