Another aspect of the invention is directed to a control system for a motor vehicle, having a driver operable clutch pedal (1), characterised in that a non-contact sensor (8) is associated with an actuating element (2, 7) of the clutch pedal (1), with an electronic control circuit receiving positional information from the sensor (8) in order to effect automatic release of the vehicle's parking brake upon a predetermined position of the clutch pedal (1) being attained. The invention also includes a motor vehicle provided with the sensing system and/or the control system.",
