If you have a manual, have a remote start and opt to leave the car in gear (as opposed to using the e brake like the factory intended) your an idiot. Hell even without the remote start its still stupid.
So, I guess we are all idiots? In this part of the country I'd wager MOST people do not use parking brakes, especially in winter. On most of the old girls which this forum "is about" a parking brake will NOT safely hold a car on a hill.
My favorite unsafe thing to point out is the old Ford/ Lincolns which had the vacuum can which automatically released the parking brake!!!!
There are PLENTY of reports of accidents (and even deaths) with these remote start units.
