Safe design (aka ergonomics) is about routine things working in an expected manner.
If you've ever gone somewhere that you drive on the other side of the road you know how long it takes to adjust reflexes. For a long time habit can jerk you into the path of a hazard. This gear shift design is totally alien to North American culture. Add the shape and responses together without interlocks and you have irresponsible design. Tones can be irritating, seat belt not on, door open, hatch opening warning and, yes, car not in park when turned off but humans are distractable.
