Abstract
A mechanism for controlling: (a) the throttling of an engine or other power source of a vehicle, and (b) the steering of the vehicle, the mechanism comprising an element moveable in a linear direction to control the throttling of the power source and rotatable to control the steering of the vehicle. Moving the element in a first linear direction increases the throttling of the power source and moving the element in a second linear direction decreases the throttling of the power source. Rotating the element in one rotational direction steers the vehicle in the right direction and rotating the element in an other rotational direction steers the vehicle in the left direction. The mechanism may further comprise a rod pivotally secured or otherwise secured to an other component of the vehicle. The element may be in the form of a handle rotatably secured to the rod. The vehicle may include a pair of front seats and the element may be positioned forward of the front seats and centered relative to the front seats for easy access for the operator.
