If the car is on level ground, and you take your foot off the brake, the Idle Speed Control System will cause the car to move slowly forward at walking speed. Even manual cars will move forward slowly at idle as long as you let the clutch in gently so as not to stall the engine. The reason for setting up cars like this is to make them easier to handle in slow moving traffic jams, which they have a lot of in Germany.
