Steering grips, also known as steering wheel knobs or spinner knobs, are assistive devices designed to make steering vehicles easier for individuals with limited hand strength, dexterity, or mobility. These grips attach securely to a steering wheel, allowing users to steer with one hand more comfortably and efficiently. Steering grips are commonly used by people with conditions such as arthritis, muscular dystrophy, or stroke-related impairments, providing greater control and reducing fatigue during driving. By improving maneuverability, steering grips promote independence and safety for drivers who face challenges with traditional steering methods.
To use steering grips effectively, first choose a model compatible with your vehicle’s steering wheel size. Attach the grip firmly in a comfortable position for your dominant hand, typically near the top or side of the wheel. Practice steering slowly to get accustomed to the new control method. Regularly check the grip’s attachment to prevent slipping and clean it as needed to maintain a secure hold. Proper setup and maintenance help maximize comfort and safety while driving.
