    Same here. Really freaked me out the first time it happened.

    I still run into what the OP experiences every couple of weeks. However, every time, the quietness of the electric motor fools me into thinking the car is off or in P. When I take my foot off the brake, I get a scare. But it's always been my fault for not being aware of my surroundings.
