Is it bad to the health of a car to use the parking break while at a complete stop while I'm still in drive (automatic)?
Example: I'm driving and I come up to a construction scene. One side of the road is closed and they consequently halt traffic for that both sides. Then a guide vehicle moves one lane and then comes for the other. This can take over five minutes while completely stationary. I frequently pull my parking brake while still in drive, however only while at a complete stop with my foot depressing the brake pedal. Once the parking brake is engaged I release the foot brake.
Is this bad for the health of the car? I leave it in Drive so that when traffic begins moving again I can simply disengage the Parking Brake.
