Easy. No steering wheel. I can reduce the amount of kinetic energy released in an accident by reducing speed. I can alter how hard I use the brake depending if I was headed toward a hard object that doesn't give, or toward an open field.

With no brakes, I get a good look at what will kill me, due to the kinetic energy released in an accident. But with no brakes, even if I turn the steering wheel, dynamic inertia (a body in motion tends to stay in motion in a straight line) will force the car to continue. Even if I turn hard, the car will probably roll because the car wants to go straight.

No brakes.

That way I could slam into something I didn't like and be free from accountability.

No brakes. You can control alot more without brakes, than you could without vision or the steering wheel.

I would rather not have any of those things while driving, however, if you are asking whcih one I would choose to lose if I had to pick one... it would be the brakes. As having a pilots license, you learn how to control a plane without brakes or power but vision is the most important unless you have no control, the second is steering. As long as you can steer and see where you are going, you have the ability to control more than if you only had brakes. Stopping without moving will not avoid a head on collision, it will only prolong it.

No brakes. You can change down the gears and come off the throttle the car will stop.

No brakes, because if u have no vision, and you try to steer into the shoulder, what if you are in the inside lane and run into another car? and no steering wheel speaks for itself because u wont be able to control the car when u brake and you will go across lanes. I picked no brakes because you can just coast until the car comes to a stop.

no brakes if im gunna hit something i wanna hit it fast and make it worth it !!! lol
