OK, so I have a dumb semi-related question. So, hand brake. That's the same as emergency brake correct? If so, I was just wondering, does anyone (other than race car drivers and such) ever use these in real life while driving?
I was always told the only time to use those was when parked on a hill, so your car won't roll away. I'd actually be scared to pull that thing while driving. To me, it would be the same as shifting while moving (in an automatic that is, never drove a manual), or turning the car off when in drive.
