    Hi, Diana!
    Hoping that some fellow community members can chime in with any personal experience, but we do have a "Life Hacks" article that does include this convenient tool to aid in driving;

    Also, an article about a fellow MS'er and writer for MultipleSclerosis.net who was able to get hand controls, and felt at ease due to the safety it came with; https://multiplesclerosis.net/living-with-ms/handicapped-placard/.
    Hoping that you find this helpful!

    Does anyone have bad chest pains that go through to their back?

    Does anyone have so much pain in their legs that they need a wheelchair?
