In all of the modern vehicles that I have tried it in with push button ignition: BMW, MB, Ford, Lexus/Toyota, Nissan, mainly common brands, you can turn the vehicle completely off during vehicle movement by simply pushing the start/stop button without having the foot on the brake. That means that you lose vacuum assisted brakes, and with the majority of modern vehicles using electrically assisted steering, you loose steering as well, in some cases the column locks. I will note that it has been a couple of years since I`ve had access to anything other than MB/BMW to see if Manufacturers have released software updates to at least not lock the steering column and keep some accessory power on when the vehicle isn`t in park or neutral. I know for sure that MB/BMW have with software updates, the thing is that people don`t take their vehicles in regularly to have the software updated.....
