Does the Steering Wheel Control the Front Wheels or Rear Wheels?

[LeKingston]

Except for some special vehicles, the steering wheels of ordinary cars and trucks generally control the front wheels. Here is more extended information about automotive steering wheels: 1. Method of operating the steering wheel: If the steering wheel is viewed as a clock face, the correct hand position should be the left hand holding between 9 and 10 o'clock, and the right hand holding between 3 and 4 o'clock. 2. Working principle of the steering wheel: The function of the steering wheel is to convert the force applied by the driver to the edge of the steering wheel into torque, which is then transmitted to the steering shaft. 3. Reason for not controlling the rear wheels: Controlling the rear wheels with the steering wheel is very unstable, especially with single rear-wheel steering, which has extremely poor stability and becomes difficult to control at high speeds.
