Car Breakdown Assist

An opportunity exists for the manufacture and sale of an electro-mechanical device designed to enable broken down cars to be moved short distances. The aim is to create a device which can be used by one person, but which gives greater control and improved safety aspects over existing products on the market. The end user can move attach the device and move the vehicle forward or in reverse at a rolling pace while the driver is in full control of the steering. The overall market for such equipment includes commercial garages, car showrooms, car breakdown assistance organisations such as AA, vintage car enthusiasts involved in repairing and upgrading cars in home garages etc.
