I have the same problem. I tie my legs to the legrest above my knee with ace bandage. This keeps them from moving under the hand control. I sometimes strap my feet as well and I always were a snug chest strap. Falling sideways while navigating a turn is most unpleasant.

Every once in a while my whole body stiffens up and my legs jam up under the
hand controls thus disabling gas operations but I can still  brake.
Sometimes my legs start jumping and once jumped onto the gas peddle. I backed up quickly ( I'm not locked in ) - and got my foot under the peddle. Gets pretty
exciting sometimes.

I FINALLY GOT MY VAN BACK LAST FRIDAY. THEY LEFT THE GAS SETTING PAST EMPTY
BUT HOPEFULLY I'M DONE WITH IDS - INDEPENDENT  DRIVING SYSTEMS.

IT IS WONDERFUL TO HAVE THIS INDEPENDENCE BACK. ONLY THING IS AFTER DRIVING 20 MINUTES ON THE INTERSTATE MY MUSCLES SAY NO WHEN I MAKE MY 1ST TURN. SPASM
CITY. I THINK IT'S FROM BEING PRETTY MUCH IN  ONE POSITION THEN TRYING TO
MOVE SUDDENLY. ANYONE ELSE EXPERIENCE THIS? I'M FINE JUST GOING INTO TOWN A FEW
MILES.
