driven someone else's car which happens to be an automatic, and they leave the parking brake on, and suffering from a brain fart you forget to release it?

i was driving my brother's 03 corolla today taking my mom to the dentist. for some reason he always leaves the parking brake on and i always forget to release it. i only use it for manual cars. our driveway is inclined but not a whole lot. we get on the freeway and i feel the car doesnt have as much get up and go as usual (not like it had a whole lot anyway h: ). we get to the dentist office about 10 miles away, i shut the car off and get out and smell a terrible rotten egg smell coming from the back wheels. my mom was like "did you forget to take the parking brake off?" i look back in the car and the brake handle was half way up. :doh: :blondemoment:

 

my car doesn't have a hand brake. :sad:

 

Yea i've done that before to one of my dads pos Mitsu pickups.... but it was a 5 speed h: i didn't realize it until i stopped at a stop sign and it was smokin....

 

Eeeeek. I've done that before, but not for 10 miles :slap:



:chuckles:

 

I tend to do that when their e-brake is a pedal/latch.

More often I find myself pressing on their "engine start" button that doesn't exist on the left side. h:

 

i always check the e-brake cus i'm so used to it h:

 

yea my friend did that in my car :screwy: lol i told him to turn the damn key that lazy bastid h:

must be an s2k owner deal :hsugh:

 

my gf likes to pull her e-brake in her automatic and i forget to take it off. but i forgive her since shes from the hilly sanfrancisco :chuckles:

 

i drive stick and still use my parking brake. so never for me.

 

damn noob..

i've never driven with the hand brake on.
but i did a couple weeks ago, drove my gf's dad's camry, and i parked it in D cuz i dont put my car in P when i park h:
