So I was stopped on a hill going up, and while the car was still in drive I pushed down firmly on the brake, then engaged the ebrake and hill assist. I got out of the car to get my mail in a hurry, forgetting to put it in park first. Didn't realize that until I got back a few seconds later. No big deal?

if you hit the link next to the question mark in my signature, you might describe such a vehicle.

one that is smart enough not to roll away and hit something.

Not a big deal. The car had a Torque converter

Did not hurt anything.

No worse than sitting at a stop light with your foot on the brake. Think about it.

That said, it's never a good idea to get out of the car while it's still in gear ... for safety reasons.

Just ask Anton Yelchin ...

Darned Jeeps, they killed Mr. Chekov!

I'll admit it. I'm so clueless, I had to look that one up.
