This report presents the results of the SAE Human Factor Committee Driver Control Reach Study conducted in June-August 1971. Over 100 test subjects were measured on three test fixtures representing a sports car, a typical passenger car, and a heavy truck. Finger grasp reach was recorded to 40 locations in front of the driver. The report presents the background information for a forthcoming SAE Recommended Practice on Driver Arm Reach.
