When parking, should you shift to neutral first or pull the handbrake first?

When parking, whether to shift to neutral first or pull the handbrake first depends on the vehicle type: 1. Manual transmission vehicles: Pull the handbrake first, then shift to neutral; 2. Automatic transmission vehicles: Shift to neutral first, then pull the handbrake. The professional name for the handbrake is the auxiliary brake, which uses a steel wire cable connected to the rear brake shoes to brake the vehicle. Long-term use of the handbrake will cause the steel wire to undergo plastic deformation. Since this deformation is irreversible, long-term use will also increase the handbrake's travel. Neutral usually refers to the state where the vehicle's gear lever is not placed in any forward or reverse gear, and the transmission is completely separated from the drive wheels. The neutral position for manual transmissions is in the middle, while for automatic transmissions, it is marked with an N.
