What? Have you even driven anything that's not a big truck without power steering (and I don't mean a car with power steering disabled). It's not _that_ big a difference, if at all.
- taeric 8y agoHave you seen a 16 year old try? Many failures are an adding up of a bunch of "not a big difference" differences. Why take that risk? You would clearly stop short of taking away vision. Why not make people drive with a vehicle that doesn't have a rear window? All told, shouldn't be that big of a deal.

I could see how it could surprise someone who's learning to drive, or isn't used to a car without power steering - the wheel is substantially harder to turn when the car isn't rolling.
