Yep. CBA with sitting with my foot on the brake, so on it goes. I'm not wealthy enough to have fancy cars with auto handbrakes and hill holds.
Likewise.
Same.
Ditto. And probably for hill starts.
Still occasionally caught out from having driven an auto for two years

Wish I could, but Porsche took the option away with the 981 series.

I use it for parking, or at level crossing etc. F430 - N and hand brake. M4 - no P, so N and handbrake. X5 - P and e-handbrake (it has Auto (H)old option, but I prefer it to creep forward and I bring it to a halt smoother, so don’t use it.)
I always start cars after checking it’s in neutral and with clutch depressed (if it has one). I’ve yet to drive one into a house doing this.
