A left foot pedal adaptor assembly 10 permits control of the throttle of a vehicle using the left leg of the driver. This is useful for disabled or handicapped drivers. The assembly 10 comprises a modular or separable frame assembly 20 and two adjustable pedal assemblies 40 mounted thereto. Each adjustable or alterable pedal assembly 40 includes a pedal 42 that is pivotable about a hinge 46 between a folded position and an operational position. The adjustable pedal assembly 40 is configured to permit six degrees of freedom of movement of the operational position of the pedal 42 via a ball joint 52 and a swivel joint 58. The operational position may be adjusted in a transverse or left-right direction. The assembly may also have a locking mechanism (Fig. 5, 66) which locks the swivel joint in place. The assembly may have a twin-flip mechanism, such that only one pedal is in the operational position at a time. A method for installing a left foot accelerator is also claimed.
