    The only problem I see is that the insufficient force feedback lets the steering wheel turn faster than the front wheels can turn, giving the driver wrong information. Only on a race track would you need to change directions that fast, and that’s standing still when turning resistance is immense, so it’ll turn even faster at speed. I doubt normal cars could turn the front wheels that fast standing still.

      You are not educated on professional driving. It’s part of any DOT regulated vehicle to not have more than an 1/8th of play in any steering wheel. The lag of any possible driver inputs is deemed by international regulations to down a vehicle and refuse to use it in any capacity until it is fully functional.

      You just said “No big deal. Fuck them laws.” to almost every person that has driven any sort of vehicle as a profession and what they have worked for decades to make it safe for everyone on the road.
