Maybe in the UK, but not here in the Great White North.
Personally I think the safest would be that it had to be in neutral and with the pedal depressed, or just in neutral to start the engine. If the clutch failed or if your foot slipped when you are starting the car in gear it could launch with the possibilities of dire consequences.
I'd check for codes as a first step to solving the problem. Not much fails without leaving a code.
