Steering Wheel to indicator stalk
Serious question everyone, i have changed my design and extended my steering column to the wheel. I now have around 140mm from the wheel to the
indicator stalk and horn press. Is there any rules as to the IVA for this distance, do you have to be able to indicate etc without removing your hand
from the wheel. Thanks for anything, Mawbs.

I don't believe there's any rule here on stalk distance. After all, you don't have to have your indicators or any other switches on
stalks - they can be on the dash or tunnel.
Possibly a more important consideration for a car where you'll likely be wearing a 4 or 5 point harness and strapped in good and tight is
whether you can still comfortably and safely reach/operate those controls. Might sound silly, but I've seen dash layouts where you'd
never reach some of the controls without unstrapping yourself

Indicators will still need to self cancel.

I don't think so
As some day it may happen that a victim must be found,
I've got a little list-- I've got a little list
Of society offenders who might well be underground,
And who never would be missed-- who never would be missed!
