To be more clear, this is why I pointed out the first line of your link:
But this is exactly what that car is doing. The network generates an angle, then explicitly calls a steering function- something like (SetTurnAngle(angleFromNetwork)) - or to put it another way, there is a turnLeft() function.
That was a bad choice of name on my part because I intended it to be a higher order kind of command, like turn left on this road, not like set angle -1, -15,-45, -34, -20, -7, etc -- The model controls the most primitive command you can give to the car, not some high level thing that executes the act of making left turns or braking or 180s etc that you would tell a human driver
