What is the "parking brake"?
The parking brake is a system in a vehicle used to keep the vehicle stationary when parked. It is typically activated by pulling a lever or pressing a button, and it works independently from the regular braking system. The parking brake is especially useful when the vehicle is parked on a slope, preventing it from rolling. It is also used in emergencies when the primary braking system fails, helping to stop or slow down the vehicle.
Example
