If we sat here and looked at the transmissions for a second, we would find:
MTX: If in gear the clutch would have to be pushed in, therefore, the engine would just rev and not go forward. Even if it was in neutral, the car wouldn't move.
ATX: If in gear to be stopped the brake has to be depressed, which rock sniffer pointed out, the contour couldn't override the brakes.
Hmmmmmmm...
I don't get why people blame there own driving on the Contours.
