Handbrake warning!

Silly me stopped at the traffic lights the other day and drove of with my handbrake still on! It must have only been on ever so slightly, after about 5 seconds a warning buzzer came on, as if I had left my lights on when you park your car. I just looked down at the dash a seen the handbrke light on so I imediatley undone the handbrake! But hey if it wasnt for the buzzer I would have drove all the way home 15 miles and suddenly realise when I tried to stopped that I would have had no brakes! Anyway cheers VW thanks for making the polo for us idiots!

At least it saved your brakes from futher damage, most cars just have the light and no sound!
