Yes that is true about padding on all hard services you can make contact with, ADR 69/00 from memory. Though steering wheels seem to be a bit of a grey area, so are boss units that no longer are collapsable. It seems to come down to local transport organisation and the engineers. We don't need padded wheel centres etc in Queensland, but the wheel needs to be compliant as mentioned above.
