I lost pneumatic steering during a turn, and it nearly tore my arm off. Not sure most people would be able to drive over a few mph without powered steering. Ho

I lost pneumatic steering during a turn, and it nearly tore my arm off. Not sure most people would be able to drive over a few mph without powered steering.
Hopefully the steer by wire systems are backed by another steer by wire system, so it would be terrible luck if you lost both at the same time.

- AshleyGrant 3y agoWhat car are you driving that has pneumatic steering? Also, in my experience driving cars with unassisted steering, it's steering at parking speeds that is difficult, steering at speeds above about 10 mph is fairly easy.
- megaman821 3y agoThe incident happened in the early 2000s and the car was Buick LeSabre from the 80s. I am no expert, so maybe it was some other steering assist technology, but it definitely wasn't easy to finish the turn without it.
