| Parking Brake problems |
Parked car on relatively flat driveway (maybe 3 degree grade). Did not put car in gear but did engage the parking brake. About 15-20 minutes later, car was seen rolling down/across the driveway and over an embankment. It came to rest against a tree and incurred significant damage to the body.
