Re: The unfamiliar can always catch people out
I discovered when putting my car up on ramps that if the door is open, it will let you roll forward a few feet, then unceremoniously slam the parking brake on. The first time it happened I thought I was an idiot and hit the button without realizing it. I understand the merits of this safety feature with all the roll-away crashes and people running themselves over with their own cars, but nowhere in the manual was it documented that it would do this.
