Wingbrake-V Driver Training Brake for new Student Drivers Instructor's Passenger Brake Parent Teen Driving Lesson

A must have for teaching a new driver. I can actually go out with my daughter without having a heart attack every time we go for a lesson. I keep my hand near it and it works perfectly whenever I need to apply the brake. I've already used it in three different cars. Installs in seconds and comes off just as fast and it just fits and works.

This is a well made device that will withstand the test of time. It is easy to install and remove. It works great, and you can lock the brakes with no problem. It is out of the way of the driver, and gives Dad a feeling of confidence knowing that he can stop the car form the passenger seat if necessary. It seems a bit pricy, but it is well worth the money.

I looked high and low for how to economically get a brake which I can apply while a relative I was helping out was learning to drive. I looked up passenger side brake kits and they cost 100's of dollars + installation cost. I could find only one mechanic shop (which also was 15 miles away) who would install such a thing and will again charge many 100's for the job. The total cost would be affordable and I would end up with a permanently modified car. Then I found this, first I was skeptical, but I thought, I would just return it in case it does not work. But when I got it, it took only 10 seconds to install and it is so easy to operate, it is also well made and sturdy. I am amazed why other people did not think of such a product. I am very happy.

We have a daughter reaching driving age and wanted something to help everyone be comfortable during driving lessons. At her school, the driving teacher used a Wingbrake so we decided to get one for our lessons. The tool is exceptionally to install, clip around top of the brake the loop an elastic band over the rearview mirror bracket. You then push on the silver knock of the Wingbrake and the brake pedal is pushed down. Works very well and easy to make use of from the passenger seat. The included 'Student Driver' sign uses a slightly adhesive material as opposed to being magnetic so I don't make use of instead purchasing a set of three magnetic signs for about $6 on Amazon. This was not a key element of my purchase so didn't deduct a star, but something to be aware of. The only negative we have had is that by the second use of the device, the elastic started to separate (see pic). I have contacted the company, but have not heard back yet. While not extremely expensive, I still would expect a key component such as the elastic to last more than two uses. Beyond this, the Wingbrake does exactly what you expect and makes for a much safer experience teaching someone to drive.

We sold an instructor car with the typical instructor pedal and had to pay $200 to remove it. We bought these units in 2019 and have loved them. Countless times we and the road test instructors have used them to slow down an "Enthusiastic" student. They attach quickly to any vehicle and with some rotating to get them in the right position they work great. Two things you have to be aware of. In some states its illegal to have anything dangling from the rear view mirror and secondly when the student pushes hard on the pedal it could rotate the shaft to lock on the brake. You will have to pull up on the device to release its hold on the pedal. Otherwise great device to use!

This is simple way to keep a student driver as well as others safe while learning to drive. Simple design, just clips onto the brake stem and that's it, the only downside is it is a bit hard to slow down vs coming to an abrupt stop but when you need to gain control to avoid an accident this works 100%.

This thing is amazing. Our school cancelled the in the car driving training for drivers ed because of Covid (even though the rest of life is normal here!) So we were told the parents have to do all the driving in addition to the regular 50 practice hours the state requires. So pretty much all the high school kids are supposed to be practicing on their parents cars, out on the road, with no safety brake. It is terrifying to have no ability to keep your kid and your car and everyone else safe and everyone I know keeps saying they don’t take their kid much because it’s awful. I felt that way too, started researching is there a way to install a brake (sooo much money), can you rent a drivers Ed car (no) and then found this. Reviews were good so I figured hey it’s cheap, why not. Easy to install, just push it onto the thing that the brake is connected to then attach the band to the mirror. When you want to take it off there’s a button you push and you can pull it off the brake. The best part, it works!!! It made it possible to feel safer about taking her out, she got to go practice and now she can drive. 100% BUY THIS, YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT. So much peace of mind!

Bad quality

I got this product for my friend who is a driving teacher, he is happy to get it at such a low price compare to other products available in the market. The best feature is, you can quickly put on or remove according to your choice.

It works!

Very good, nice and simple to use
