Driving With Bilateral Above Knee Prosthetics

Seth Alexander lost both legs in a single car accident when he was 16 years old. He has been a full-time prosthetics user since 5 months post injury. He has never used an adapted vehicle or hand controls. Utilizing his prosthetics in a specific programmed mode, allow him to go safely between the gas and brake pedals.
Disclaimer: Do not operate a motor vehicle with prosthetics until you have confirmed your prosthetics technology is capable of a specific customized programmable "driving" function and is properly setup by a prosthetic professional experienced with driving with prosthetics. Prior to driving with prosthetics, you must notify your local department of motor vehicles to confirm driving with prosthetics is legal in your area. You must be tested and certified by your local department of motor vehicles to insure you can safely and legally operate a motor vehicle with prosthetics devices. Remember, safety first, do not put your life or other lives in danger. www.dreamteamprosthetics.com

I feel you on this one man. I'm AK on my right side, and I have to wear an IDEO brace on my left leg. But I still drive with a left foot accelerator. Amazing that you don't need a single adaption!

With the right prosthetics and training, driving is certainly possible using the prosthesis, but it should only be done if your team has plenty of experience setting the knee up properly for driving and the ability to teach you the proper techniques to be safe.
