I have noticed that the start stop button is in the steering wheel. That seems like a terrible place for it. I hit the buttons on my cars steering wheel while driving all the time. 😬

I'm sure you'll have to hold the button down for several seconds to shut everything down. You are correct though-- it doesn't seem like an ideal location.

Yeah I would hope. But I don’t like it. Makes me uneasy.

You'd probably acclimate to it, but yeah this type of button seems better served on the dash vs. steering wheel. Likely they were going for overall aesthetics...
