Why keep simplicity when you can replace with something heavier, more complex and less reliable and more costly
EPB's are exactly that - A revenue generating solution to a problem that does not exist.
EPBs are in the same category as DMFs, Tyre pressure sensors, Proximity brakes and Auto parallel parking systems. Not needed and a pain in the arse when they fail.
+1 - but you forgot DRL's - IMHO, If "one" needs other cars to have lights on all the time so "one" can see them - then I really don't think "one" should be driving.
And I say this as someone who has 3 eye operations, with a fourth planned, and I can see other cars much better without bl**dy DRL's
