There’s no way anyone will press it by accident!

    You’re either

    • far too tall for that car,
    • the car is a heavily modified Peel P50,
    • or you’re one of those (short-sighted?) grannies that sits within licking range of the windscreen (marshmallow, with hints of orange, for the curious).

    Meh; pro drivers turn it off anyway, so it doesn’t interfere with your inputs and prevent you from Tokyo Drifting around corners.

    I wish my traction+stability control button was next to my knee too, so I don’t have to keep reaching for the button every time I start my car.

    (FWIW, I’m not a pro driver. I just turn it off because it’s a bit too aggressive in my 350Z. Even the tiniest bit of wheel spin cuts all power from the engine and doesn’t give it back for at least 5-10 seconds, which is especially annoying when you’re in the middle of a gear change.)

      I have to hold it a few seconds for it to actually turn off (and not just go into sport handling whatever mode) and then I drift a little to get that 0.5 seconds of joy I can on my daily commute without going out of my way to get the chance.
