Power Steering or No Power Steering for Beginners?

[shaanpk]

I just started learning driving and I have been researching about what features I should look for in my first car. It seems that Power Steering and ABS brakes have become a standard in almost all of the newer models of modern cars (Pak Suzuki is an exception). However, I am being advised by a lot of people to learn driving without Power Steering. What I understand is that Power Steering improves the accuracy and ease of steering and hence is a safety feature which has become a standard in almost all modern cars. So why should new drivers learn without power steering? Wouldn't it be safer for them to learn with Power Steering as steering can be more accurate with this feature hence it reduces the chances of collision. I will be driving a car with Power Steering anyways and since almost all modern cars have this safety feature as a standard why shouldn't we just adopt it as a standard and ditch the unsafe cars without this safety feature?

Brother I'll tell you my experience
I learned driving on manual steering when I was about 14 and till now I am driving manual steering (soon going to transfer on power steering)
I'll suggest you that start driving with manual it's bit difficult to drive and sometimes you really fed up when you have to turn car at slow speed but still it's more safe for example (ALLAH saves us from such incident) if someone suddenly comes in front of you and in hurry you turn power steering as its light It alot then your ride slips and become out of control and that's really bad.
When you become use to of manual steering then you feel driving a power steering car soo easy like me now driving power steering is a piece of cake for me

This is my personal experience and maybe also only my opinion

Interesting topic!
Btw mene car chalana Power steering wali car pr seekhi thi so then jab kafi arsaa power steering wali car chalanay ke baad jb manual steering wali chalai toh maslaa ye hota tha ke after a big turn and U-Turn jab steering wapis rotate kartay waqt issue hota tha ya zayada rotate ho jata tha ya kumm rotate hota tha! So my advice is to learn on a manual steering car.

I would suggest non power steering and manual transmission

There is no such rule mate. Non power steering cars will be history in some time so dnt even bother.
Electronic power steerings are much more safer and effective so start with a power one and if somehow you need to drive a manual one (a rare chance though) it wnt be much of a problem 4 u i guess
