movement of a flexible cable 30 connected to the output of a
motor 28 into rotary movement of screw 24. In operation of
the brake pedal, motor 28 is suitably actuated to rotate screw
24 which causes nut 14e to travel along the rotating
screw to slidably move pedal arm 14 relative to adjustor
member 12 with the precise direction of the relative movement
defined by sliding movement of pins 14c and 14d in slots 12d
and 12e. This sliding movement of pedal arm 14 on adjustor
member 12 moves pedal 22 forwardly and rearwardly to
ergonomically accommodate drivers of various statures.

wheel tilt positioning device and a head-up display
positioning device. Figure 1 of Murphy shows a diagram
depicting a vehicle operator identification verification
system 10. The system 10 includes a key fob transmitter 12
