Corporate stupidity

Car manufacturers have reached the limits of insanity, surely?

Several are advertising cars with 'electronic handbrakes'. How stupid are these people going to get?

The whole point of a handbrake is that it's a simple mechanical link to the brakes. If your engine fails, all the fuses blow and your battery dies, you can still apply the handbrake.

Unless it's electronic.

I'll be sticking with older models. Simple mechanics means cheap repairs, and fewer things to go wrong in the first place.
