The foot brake is the way to go though.
My long-term (27-yr) employer was an MSHA-sanctioned facility. Even though it was our private vehicle, we were subject to being fined by MSHA if we didn't set the e-brake in the employee parking lot. My brake didn't work, but I kept the pedal pushed into the "set" position, in case the gestapo came and looked on a day when they couldn't find enough stuff in the plant to gig.

Now, I'm anal about setting it, even in the driveway....a level driveway.
