They'll wear down faster and so will the rotor.

I've seen an old lady drive around all day with her e-brake on in a rental mercedes. It's quite a bit easier in a an auto, don't know how you'd pull it off in a stick.

I don't mean to be rude, but doesn't the red "brake" light on the dash alert you? I'll admit, sometimes I leave my brake on too, But I don't get out of my driveway before I realize there's a red light lit up on my dash. Do people not see this?

No, people honestly don't see it. It sad, but a lot of people just don't care or notice as much about their cars as others.

Whenever people do that I turn mine on as well. I can just imagine thier thoughts. "Why they hell did that guy just turn on his blinker on a one lane highway with no turns?" Then a few minutes pass, they realize theirs is on and turn it off, feeling kind of stupid:slap: . Then I turn mine off. LoL.
