Default DVD Player

I just bought a DVD Player for my car but if the engine is running and the handbrake is down then it wont play, obviously a method to prevent the driver being distracted.

I don't find it distracting, I tend to listen to the film and the occasional glance when at traffic lights etc...

But its mostly for my passengers.

Ive found a loophole around it though, I put the handbrake on the lowest setting possible. I know this could be dangerous on some cars that have a short handbrake but mine has quite a bit of pull with it. Ive tested it out, the lowest setting doesn't seem to effect the car what so ever, its very weak.

So despite all that? Any comments?
