Yeah, I am sure. I tried it a couple times and after turning the key to off (you do have to switch it to OFF for a moment, don't you? How else can one turn off the car?) I turned it back to two other spots, of which neither gave me the results as reported here. In fact I got a small flashlight and took a long look at the ignition switch so I thought I knew where to place the key after turning it off. Maybe my ideal of "steering" and others is not the same. I do stand corrected as I could move the steering wheel about 1 inch either direction, but to do that took all of my strength, so I had to re-start. It was a steep incline but my car was moving pretty slow at first and got faster as I started downward, thats when it seemed my brakes were useless. Could it of been the SPEED I was moving? Because I don't think I was going very fast at all when I tried it, but as I was nearing a curve as my speed increased and I got a little spooked and restarted the car so I could steer. The second time I tried it was at a very low speed on a small hill that did not have a curve.... and I had the same results.
I think I will have to try this again. I just have to find a safer place to do it. I will report in this thread if I find a way of doing it right.
