Is that the case with BMWs? Can you hold down the start/stop button to turn the car off while it is moving? Can you shift to neutral with the paddle shifters if the accelerator is engaged?

Any tips on how to react in this admittedly unlikely scenario?


Nothing prevents the brakes from working^... at any time, ever...!
