Parking, Reversing & Roadside StopsStandalone practice
On a cold morning, you stop at a store for a few minutes. No one else is in the car, and you would like to keep the heater running. What must you do before you leave the car?
Correct answer: Stop the engine, take the key with you, and set the parking brake.
Why
A car with the engine running or the key inside can be stolen or moved by someone else, and a car that is not held by its brake can roll. It is also a good habit to lock the doors each time you leave the car. These steps take only a few seconds, even when the stop is short.
