What Happens If You Drive with the Handbrake On?

I can’t believe I almost drove off once with the handbrake still on! It really affects the car’s performance. Lesson learned!

That’s wild! It’s good that nothing happened. Did you notice a difference in how the car handled?

Absolutely! The car felt sluggish and I could smell the brakes. It was a big red flag that something was wrong.

It’s crazy how quickly we can become complacent. I’ve had similar scares and now I have a mental checklist before driving.

That’s a great habit to develop! It could save a lot of trouble. What’s on your checklist?

Always check mirrors, buckle up, and of course, the handbrake! It’s surprising how these little things make a big difference.

Great points! Just don’t forget to actually buckle up or this will turn into a comedy sketch!

Yeah! Imagine forgetting that and driving around with the handbrake on - talk about a wild ride! But all jokes aside, safety first, right?
