Control pedal apparatus including brake and accelerator pedals adapted for connection with the brake and throttle mechanisms of an automotive vehicle further includes a pivoted brake pedal carrier member suitably swingably mounted on support structure of the vehicle and an accelerator pedal bracket fixedly mounted on such support, each carrier and bracket having mounted for rotation thereon an Acme screw. One such screw carries an integrally formed nut end portion of the brake pedal member while the other rotatably mounts an elongated nut or throttle pedal carrier member pivotally carrying on a distal end thereof a low-pivoted accelerator pedal member. Linkage between the support structure, the accelerator carrier and the pedal thereon adjusts the vertical attitude of the pedal on the carrier during rotation of the corresponding screw. The accelerator pedal connects with the vehicle throttle through push-pull cable means arranged to transfer actuation through flexure of a loop portion thereof within the passenger compartment.
