Been working with gravity for 37 years, took me 0.5 seconds of thinking to reason that one out.

Gravity has been working on me for 59 and it is starting to show!

This is silly,

Just turn your high beams on, they don't shut off with the PARKING brake

then you can drifto at night all you want..

why'd we spend 5 pages discussing this? pcguru2000 has written a freaking research paper

On a historical note, waaaay back in the day …… the brakes had a dual function …… brakes …… AND parking brakes ……

http://www.syrpa.lindberglce.com/barn/wagon02.htm


brakes = parking brakes = hand brake = side brake = emergency brake = foot brake

I've never debated whether or not to use the hand brake for parking cause my car doesnt have a "P" mode...


On another note, do DRLs go on with headlights on the newer models now? On the 2015 BRZ it was either or, not both. Unless you have the Always-On mod from DD or something else DIY'd up.

after reading all the angst this has caused the OP, it totally makes sense why manufacturers got rid of the parking brake
