It's not the first time the pedals have been rearranged. Henry Ford was the first to introduce the three-pedal car in 1909. His Model T's accelerator was a lever on the steering column, while the three pedals were a brake, a gear shift and a clutch. Ford later decided that the brake and accelerator should be placed close to each other and operated alternately. By 1928, the Model A had an accelerator pedal and a separate gear control. Automatic transmissions later made the clutch obsolete.

Yeah, and they want to re-invent the wheel too; by making it square shaped and boxy, it will match their Vulvas... or is it Volvos??

Just wait until the eyeball-controlled steering is invented!
