Most drivers ed classes only teach the basics.
A lot of the fleet cars they use only have a foot parking brake with the ratchet and a release handle located in an inconvenient place.
It's either on or off.
It's a foot brake and not a hand brake. You can't really release those smoothly.

To get around teaching about how to use a handbrake they just don't..
