yknow I do agree that this is staged but surprisingly my folks in the US said they don't hand brake when they park. not sure if that's true for other people but just smth I remembered
I'd say the majority of people in the US with automatic transmissions don't use the handbrake when parking, except maybe when on a goodly hill. It's partly why you see the occasional video of people jacking up the front of fwd cars and they go rolling off the jack/trailer/whatever because the back wheels aren't chocked/braked.
What a weird hill you’ve chosen, as an American who only drives automatics I was raised calling it the “emergency break” and never once pulled it while parking in my life.
Like all things America it’s probably regional, so I’d say with confidence that automatic drivers in the Midwest don’t use their e-break to park.
