lol dont hate me for this but i honestly laugh every time i see someone with an automatic car parked w/ their e-brake on...
i could be wrong but isnt there absolutely no way the car could get out of gear without you pushing the brake, the button on the shifter AND moving the shifter ? i mean on a hill i guess you're just being safe but i still think its kinda funny hey it could be just me though  i laugh at everything.

it puts less stress on the parking mechanism in the tranny especially on hills. i use the ebrake everytime i park.
