Uphill--away from the curb Downhill--towards the curb. Been working with gravity for 37 years, took me 0.5 seconds of thinking to reason that one out. |

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 ……

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
