The Problem with RDMS is that at any moment on a country road it could pull the steering and send you head on into oncoming traffic.
I find this very hard to believe. I have had mine for 16 months and approaching 5k miles. I have not experienced anything like that. Yes it can vibrate the wheel and sometimes it seems a bit premature but steering into oncoming traffic, no. I have noticed that the vibration happens a lot less now than when I first had the car. So maybe my driving has improved 🤔.
From your statement above shouldn't you be reporting this to Honda, NCAP and the DVSA.
Been thinking about this and I'm wondering if it's not more a case of the car preventing you from steering in the direction you want. You see an oncoming car on a narrow lane, you pull over as close as you can to the hedge so both vehicles can pass but the car resists your attempt to pull over.
In my scenario - the 3 lane junction at lights - I want to be in the left lane but the car obviously senses I am moving towards parked cars near the junction and wobbles the wheel.
So you may be right - the car doesn't actually steer you into oncoming traffic but makes it more difficult for you to choose the right path as it were. Still very far from ideal.
