This is why you do not leave your car in gear.

This is a normal post Surely
This is WHY you should always park your car in gear. So when the handbrake fails it stays where you left it ?

Only utter imbeciles don't park their car in gear (and steered towards the kerb when on an incline)

This is a normal post Let me amend my previous statement
This is why you don't leave your car in gear when the engine is running

This is a normal post I take it you've never had a car with an auto gearbox.

This is a normal post I can settle this.
If you're a Yank who can't drive a normal car, never leave your car in gear. If, like the rest of the world, you are not baffled by simple controls, leave your car in gear.

This is a normal post I used to think like this.
Until I did get a car with an automatic. For your dreary, basic, day to day driving, it's fucking fantastic, though I also have a tiny Spitfire on the side for a bit of manual fun :)

This is a normal post To be honest,
I live in Florida and drive an automatic, but I just can't resist the chance to take the piss out of the natives of my new home country.

I also drive an automatic (Outlander PHEV) and a manual (TVR Chimaera)

This is a normal post It's on a level floor.
The car shouldn't roll off on its own. I'm not familiar with the slushboxes on old Mustangs, but if it has an electric gear selector, anything could happen.

This is a normal post ^This^
If I lived in a part of the world where I could stay in one gear for more than two or three minutes, I'd love a manual. Also, automatics have a fun 'go-karty' appeal as well. Well, they do if you drive a knackered 20yr old thing like mine.

This is a normal post Now try doing that with an off road crane on the side of a steep mountain.
I managed to push my ass into the air parking brake button, and away we started going down a very steep hill with me facing backwards. I managed to get turned around in time to avoid death, but not after a tree had taken the door off.
