A steer by wire steering system for a vehicle includes at least one electrical communication component operatively connecting a handwheel actuator to a roadwheel actuator. Also included is that the at least one electrical communication component is switchable between a first polarity assignment and a second polarity assignment based on a detected driving condition of the vehicle, the first polarity assignment turning a roadwheel in a first direction in response to a first input rotational direction of the handwheel actuator, the second polarity assignment turning the roadwheel in a second direction in response to the first input rotational direction of the handwheel actuator.
