Gifu's parking brake not working?

[Akron]

So, sometimes Gifu switches the parking brake off on it's own. Hard to say when, because it's doing so pretty frequently imo. Is it a bug or a feature?

The parking brake will fail if applied at high speed. And sometimes the truck can slide when stationary

The parking brake switches off on it's own when stationary and the truck slides. Is it supposed to do that?

[Henmond]

It shouldn't switch off

I've had that happen once before with me. But the main parking brake that gives me problems is the Tractor. I could pull it up on a slight incline, put on the parking brake, then get out, and it will start to roll on me. I found out the hard way when I flipped the van over into a ditch, walked back home to get the tractor (I figured it would be easier to tow with instead of the tanker), drove back to the van and tried to hook up a tow rope. Ended up getting the tractor falling into the ditch, but thankfully it didn't flip on me. Played heck trying to keep it from rolling and getting a tow rope attached at the same time. I managed to get the van pulled out, though.

it switches off if something hits the truck while parked (yellow car normally)

it also happens if you bump the truck with an object

Yeah this is really annoying me now. Everytime something bumps the truck be it the player themself or an outside source such as the Yellow/Green/White Car or the Bus the Parking Brake instantly turns off and the truck starts moving or rolling. It can make doing Sewage Jobs a nightmare as you get the truck in position, deploy the hose and then when you try to get into the truck to activate the pump, you fail to see the handbrake has turned off and suddenly the truck has either rolled backwards, rolled forwards, started spinning/sliding sideways. You can end up losing your hose or worse in one instance I had the whole truck tip and roll over sideways. I've also noticed after saving and exiting the game when you load up again the brake turns off and the Truck can then start to roll an move. If you don't remember to go to it straight away and re-apply it you can come to find its gone on quite the little adventure by itself.

Actually I have recently made a some sort of fix to the handbrake issue, it should make it better system but needs more testing.
