Unfortunately, a car like that would have certain problems.

1. The brakes would lock up all the time.

2. Every now and then, some windows would refuse to close, and you'd
have to shut down the entire car to solve the problem.

3. It would crash, often, without warning.

4. Perhaps worst of all, it's usually when you're doing several things
at once and can least afford it that you'll get the Blue Windscreen of
Death. Nobody likes that.
