I agree with you - but it's a stupidly impractical law.

So, some modes on the manettino are OK, and others aren't? Is Ice/Snow mode OK? Is Comfort mode OK? Is Sport OK? Each mode has different amounts of ABS/DSC/ESC. Which is OK? Which isn't ? And it'll be different on nearly every make/model of car and change from year to year on the same car make/model.

Even the cars that have buttons from the factory to turn off DSC/ESC like the Falcon and WRX I mentioned?

Is pushing a button 'deliberately disabling' ? Sounds like it to me. Not sure how they enforce that.
