I put up the hand-brake and take my foot off the brake pedal any time I know it's gonna be more than a 5 second wait

Good call on reversing backward. This video led me to a GTR racing video, thanks.

I don't understand how you can do that, isn't it disturbing when your car starts to move backwards on its own?

Yea but people don't notice it when they're busy looking down at their phones (or otherwise distracted)

It's a habit I learned when learning to drive (and I learned on an automatic). As a result I have NEVER accidentally rolled forward or back b/c I got distracted. Not in an AT or an MT. Ever.

But yeah, I have had to reverse my car and honk a couple times when people clearly can't see that my car is there and they just keep reversing into it. Nice save though, OP. You did the right thing.
