Technician a says that to prevent injuries in an auto accident, all steering columns have a break-off steering wheel. technician b says that to prevent injuries in an accident, all steering columns are now fitted with a flexible rubber tube. Both technicians are correct. The vehicle manufacturers use break away steering column mounting brackets to protect the driver in an accident. The vehicle manufacturers are required to use collapsible shafts in the steering column.
