Just had an entertaining moment with the switchy hand brake.


How best to do a reverse hill start? I went to do it, flicked off the brake then thought.... ah, how do I find the biting point without using three feet (i.e I need one foot to stop me rolling forward into the wall).

Does the handbrake auto-off work in reverse? I'd kinda fudged it by this point and didn't really want to experiment again!

Yes it does work in reverse. I reverse out of my garage every day and have never touched the handbrake.

Hurrah - I want to go back and try now. Undo the crazy fumbling and quick footedness I just had to employ :)
