“…38 Five percent of the participants with chronic foot or ankle reported not being able to drive. 19 Other less frequent strategies such as avoiding reversing (2%) and avoiding bumpy roads (3%) were also reported by Takasaki et al 44,45 Participants also reported difficulty with specific strategic driving activities, including driving in heavy traffic (21%-57%), driving alone (4%-47%), and driving at night (4%-40%). Another finding was that prolonged driving caused difficulties for 40% of drivers with CP, 44 whereas driving for more than an hour caused moderate to great difficulties for 44% of drivers with CP.…”

“…20 Twenty-five percent of participants with chronic foot or ankle pain reported pain while driving less than 1 hour compared with 35% when driving more than 1 hour. 19 In another study by Benyamina et al 4 among police officers, discomfort while sitting in a police patrol car was associated with a higher prevalence of chronic low back pain. There were no significant differences reported for overall driving performance between participants with CP (with and Summary of strategic level of driving performance results.…”

“…This aspect must not be ignored as well, although it showed low significant value (0.473). This situation can be referred to the study conducted to 33 independent drivers with chronic foot injuries (Jones et al, 2009). The study showed that 22 from 30 respondents had never been exposed to any modification availability to encounter their driving limitations.…”

“…Most countries were found to have easy access on assistive driving. This situation was proven by the availability of advanced modification introduced in several studies such as PHC-3 and TNT portable hand control (Boyce et al, 2013), Omni Haptic hand Control (Yamashita, 2014), Gesture driving (Murata & Yoshida, 2013), Joystick control (Peters & Östlund, 2005) , the flip accelerator pedal system (Jones et al, 2009), the brake accelerator pedal (Nilsson, 2002), postural support (Lawton et al, 2008), Rotational Seats (Barton & Holmes, 2013), intelligent speed adaptations (Klarborg et al, 2012;Lakkam & Koetniyom, 2015) and also wheelchairs assisted vehicles (Holmes, 2012). The suitability of a person conditions when using the modifications or driving without modifications are widely studied and recorded.…”

Assistive driving was known to be the important aspect in addressing the mobility limitation, particularly for a person with disabilities. Assistive product modification for vehicle driving, ranging from hand control, secondary control, foot control, and also the wheelchair assisted vehicle developed towards addressing the driving limitation differences according to a person types of disabilities. A pilot survey was conducted to 50 Malaysia independent drivers in Kuala Lumpur. The components evaluated during the survey include, types of modification used, aspects influencing the vehicle modification decision, problem occurrence when in use, as well as to understand the preferential decision differences. The Likert scale (1 to 5) will be used as the rate score given by the responses for each question within the component in the survey. The survey was used as the approach to gather the responses from the respondent. From the survey, it was discovered that aspect such as the disability condition, safer driving, and information availability are several major factors influencing the driver to make modification for independent driving purposes. The major factors were also discovered to influence the modification origin as preferences for driving assistance. The certain least important factors such as the involved body part movement limitation and price range must not be ignored as they also contribute to the improvement for the independent disabled driving.

“…The situation was found similar with modification availability as high mean scores were recorded from the entire disability category. The necessity of knowing the availability of a modification was highlighted in the interviews held with drivers suffering chronic right sided foot and ankle pain [27]. The study on 22 respondents revealed difficulties in checking the availability of suitable products.…”

The usability of driving modifications for a person with disabilities is known to be an important aspect in addressing the independent vehicle's driving capabilities. The existence of assistive modifications such as hand control, secondary control, foot control, and also the wheelchair assisted vehicle, which were developed to accommodate limitations were found to be widely used. A survey was conducted on 202 Malaysian independent disabled drivers from Kuala Lumpur, Selangor, Perak, Johor Baharu, Terengganu, and also Melaka. The components evaluated in the survey include the origin of modification used for driving, factors influencing the decision on the type of vehicle modification, usability difficulties when modification is in use, the satisfaction level of product appearance, as well as to understand user preferences when making decisions between modifications. A Likert scale of 1 to 5 was used as measurement, in order to rate the score given by the responses for each question in the survey. As a result, it was discovered that aspects such as the modification colour, shape, the toggle, pedal grip, regulation, modification availability, and movement limitation on the involved body part are among the major factors influencing the driver to make modification for driving purposes. Major factors were also found to influence the driving modification preferences to suit the category of disabilities. It was also discovered that components such as the availability of modification information and emergency driving situations are some of the least important factors influencing the decision to make and select a suitable driving modification. However, these less important components must not be ignored as it also contributes to the improvement for independent disabled driving, and also for the purpose of assistive product development.
