I've always drove manuals and always fantasized about jumping into a warmed up car, but leaving in neutral on a hill gave me one very bad experience. This cars parking break feels strong and I know it there was some design for drifting. Maybe I should give it a shot?

I definitely don't park on a hill but my driveway is sloped...Never had any issues or close calls... I think the car is so light you're probably safe

You park in both gear and brake .

You park in neutral at common neutral ground, no slopes, no hills.

Yep I had a car (newish) that rolled out of my driveway parked in neutral with the parking break fully engaged. Everyone around here parks manual in 1st gear + parking brake. Hill country, I wasn't born here so I had an excuse but my neighbor still thinks I'm a little of.




Where are the San Fran folks in this thread, they must have the same rule?
