If the right leg has a functional disorder, an accelerator pedal can be installed to the left of the brake pedal. The original accelerator pedal can be dropped down or covered up, which means that the original accelerator pedal (right foot) and the accelerator pedal on the left (left foot) can be used alternately. The accelerator pedal on the left can be installed in any vehicle with automatic gear transmission.
