A crime for the garage maybe.
Just ask your mechanic how to switch it off, maybe as easy as disengaging the flywheel blade brake on your lawnmower.
It’s just another example of a federal do-nothing agency trying to justify its existence by making our lives more expensive, frustrating, onerous and probably dangerous.
But we’re stuck because the Constitution gives the federal government the power to **** with us (pursuant to whatever clause it is they decide to tell the SCOTUS) because it is a living, breathing instrument dontchaknow, and the GOP Congress is powerless—they’d love to help, they really would—but there are Redbox DVDs to take back, inspiring 9-11 e-mails to send to constituents, parties to attend and there’s always Obama and ValJar Bink’s butts to kiss and so forth and so on.
So we’re just out of luck. Suck it up, pay for the auto-brake and pay to have it maintained, and disengage it.
(I just remembered, it’s time to go flush my `lo-flow’ toilet for the third time ...)
One of the ABS sensors on my 2001 Highland was going bad. Couldn’t fix it. It would apply the ABS to one wheel, as I came to a stop. I pulled the fuse for the ABS. Now it drives and brakes like all the cars I drove since 1962. Works fine, and I now have control of my braking system. I hate ABS brakes!
Yeah. We have an “Al Gore” toilet (FIL used to call it that.) It takes two or three flushes to flush a BM.
