In the golf, it's attached to the anti-lock system. You roll up to a stop anywhere and apply brakes. A sensor reads pressure and keeps it there for 2 seconds after you release the pedal. Kinda annoying for a car that has a hand brake close by.

That and a clutch pedal that has no feel along with the 800 rpm minimum engine rpm shutdown makes hill stops exciting.
