Thank you. I get tired of people "correcting" me for not pushing in the button. I suppose for foot activated emergency brakes people pull out the release lever as they are pushing their feet down???
My car doesn't have a lever, to depress the foot e-brake you have to press it down further which releases something to let it come back up. Also, while pushing the button is not required, it is handy for drifting when you only need the handbrake engaged for a second or two.

The handbrake thing can be settled in 2 minutes by consulting your vehicles instruction manual. With most vehicles it is recommended that you should NOT press the button when engaging the handbrake. Go check for yourselves. Thank me later.
The "pushing the button when pulling handbrake" theory is just stupid. Yes, it wears on the ratchet, but it's so minimal that even during the whole life span of the car you won't even notice any difference in wear.
+Umair Malik Perhaps, but I think the majority who find it irritating does so because of the mechanical sympathy, which is just unnecessary, unless you want an embolism that is.
+Andrew Cacpal It's simply to disengage the ratchet. If you're ever in a situation where your ebrake is used for an actual emergency, chances are you're not in park. Don't just yank up on your ebrake, 'cause your wheels can lock and you'll panic. You have much more control with the button pressed.
In an emergency, virux, you should never use the handbrake. The back wheels will lock up and you'll skid. If you use the service brake however, thanks to the wonders of ABS you'll be able to come to a safe and controlled stop. Unless of course your service brake fails, in which case, your screwed no matter what you do.
The owner's manual for a w201 merc actually says not to press the button when applying the hand brake, the third click is supposed to mean it's properly engaged.
With a BS explanation that makes NO ENGINEERING SENSE! The noise is annoying, and if not designed well (eg older cars), the ratchet CAN AND DOES cause enough wear for failure to occur. I'm considering making a youtube video that ACTUALLY EXPLAINS the engineering principles behind metal on metal wear as "Engineering Explained" gave a very poor explanation which has resulted in a lot of 13yo keyboard warriors thinking their #$%^ doesn't stink running around thinking they know better.
And some cars that have a floor mounted parking brake don't have a release lever, so it would rachet. Proving that it's ok to not press the button while setting the parking brake. Still, I press the button anyway on some cars. My Volvo 240 has a loud parking brake mechanism, and I don't like the way it sounds. Pretty much every other car I either will press the button or I won't, it depends on whether or not I push the button.
The roundabout one is sooo American. We aren't used to them at all, but they're trying to push them really hard in certain states as "more efficient" than traditional intersections. Mind you, they do work fine, until Uncle Cleetus comes along in his 1978 F-250 that's patched together with pop rivets and busch light cans, and plows right through the traffic without a care, or Barbara, the head of the PTA comes along in her Mercedes SUV, yapping on the phone, not paying any attention to the cars in the roundabout.
You don't have to press the button for the E brake. The amount of friction necessary to create substantial wear on the hand brake would require you to literally try to rip it out. All the 80s and 90s cars that I have had never had a problem with the hand brake and I've almost never pressed the button. I like the noise tbh
The handbrake button doesn't need to be pushed - It's easier to operate without having to hold the button down - it's an audible confirmation that the ratchet is working - the wear is very minimal to virtually non-existent; has there ever been a case of a handbrake ratchet wearing out from too much use? This practise seems equivalent to advising people to do the same when "plugging in" a seatbelt. other than that great video as always and very relatable
Fog lights shouldn't cause glare unless you are driving a lifted vehicle. The lights are angled to shine under the fog to reduce the light reflecting off of the water droplets, that's the whole point of fog lights.
+Andrew Malkin I totally agree. People who claim that fog lights blind them must make a habit out of lying on the road on their stomachs, because that's the only way you'll be blinded by most car's fog lights.
+Will Morgan Yes, that's precisely it. Both headlights and fog lights have a cutoff, a horizontal line where light ends. This is by design to prevent blinding oncoming drivers. That is, if some knob hasn't installed HIDs or LEDs in said headlights and fog lights, then they blind like mad.
+Will Morgan the only thing that happens when someone uses their fog lights at night is that in doing so they make themselves look like a fool. fog lights have a cut off designed specifically not to blind incoming cars
You don't have to depress the hand brake button before engaging it. It does no damage to the teeth you hear clicking when you pull up. If you pull it apart and look at it you'll see why.
The ratchet machanism is there for a reason on the hand brake. The button is to disengage, and a ratchet is so you can have a little more accurate sense of where you're pulling it with the clicks, and the button was ONLY put there for disengamement.
I agree with everything but the handbrake one, apparently that makes no difference. It seems really debated, but my instructor told me there is no point in pressing the button so I just never have.
+mattkaythetimelord It makes no difference because the guy from engineering explained was too proud to admit that he had done something wrong? LOL. Belive me, in certain scenarios, it DOES wear out very quicky if you dont depress the button, my father learned it the first year he worked as a van driver, making like 200 stops every day.

I've worked in a job driving a van and never pushed the handbrake button in, the van does 180-200 miles a day and ratchet has never worn on the handbrake according to the mechanic, he said there is no need to press the button in. And sorry my comment last night was aggressive, I was rather drunk. I'm not saying it can't happen, but I'll believe it when I see it.
I wanna add something. my father do that : sees the red lights, still on throttle until 30 meter left with a car front then he breaks the car. Instead he could just release throttle before and save fuel..
*Here's what grinds my gears:* 1. Never using the handbrake to turn around quickly; 2. Shifting before redline; 3. Boxing people in that have a better run into a corner; 4. Braking too early;

+infiltr80r I drive at night with my fog lights on for two reasons. first: I live out in the countryside and we have no street lights so I want as much forward lighting as I can get without blinding people with my high beams. second: because it makes it easier for retarded steering wheel holders to see me.
armymatt83 That's at night and in the countryside, not really a problem. I'm from a country with a 24/7 lights requirement and I see people using fog lights when it's not even dark and the weather is clear.
Actually you can pull the handbrake without pressing the button with no problem. Like, there's minimal wear when you do that. It's DESIGNED to be able to do that. That's why It'll slide back nicely but not forward. Otherwise if the button was mandatory you wouldn't be able to slide it either way.
+Morten Nielsen It's a Car Throttle thing, doesn't actually matter in reality. That's a ratcheting mechanism made to do that. Source: Engineering Explained.
I’m watching this now and I think Alex is the only one who’s changed more, Ethan still looks the same now🤣🤣 Also, the “loosing your s🚗🚗t at the roundabout” part. Is it ironic that Ethan made that noise whilst driving next to a Royal Mail lorry?🤣 sorry Jack.
Why is it a mistake to pull the handbrake without pushing the button? The button is there to be used when releasing the handbrake to start going, not for the other way around. Ok, sure, the sound is annoying to you, but it is NOT A MISTAKE, just a personal thing, less noise or whatever.
Emil Borchert Other than the fact that the oil is cold and thick so your wearing your engine by reving it high. Just wait 10 seconds for the oil to get to all the parts, and drive gently for 5-10 mins and the coolant will be up to temp and the oil will be thinned out considerably so it can actually flow in the engine to do its thing.
100% agree, why some people think it's ok to do this to someone else's car I'll never know. I always park in the far corner of a supermarket car par now for this exact reason!!!
John Stewart It's not really that bad, there are a lot of conflicting arguments about wearing out the ratchet but I personally hate the noise it makes :P
Ok so the ratchet on the handbrake? really? The car lights being on actually reduce accidents it is the reason day lighters are now standard. Creeping at the lights is physic 101 an object in motion takes less energy than an object stopped (ok so I am grasping on the last one, I just like to creep)
Daytime headlights are compulsory, not fog lights. highway code rule 211,"you MUST NOT use front or rear fog lights unless visibility is seriously reduced...you MUST switch them off when the visibility improves". It is an offence and you can be fined for it, you fuckwit!!!

It's an inanimate object. It could drive autonomously, yes, just like ANY other car with the sufficent technology inside, which is amazing. Just because you CAN be a passanger, doesn't mean you are.

armymatt83
That's at night and in the countryside, not really a problem.
I'm from a country with a 24/7 lights requirement and I see people using fog lights when it's not even dark and the weather is clear.

when someone is overtaking you, they stay on the throttle or give more throttle to not let you pass
Lol i do that for the shots and giggles on highways.
Actually you can pull the handbrake without pressing the button with no problem. Like, there's minimal wear when you do that. It's DESIGNED to be able to do that. That's why It'll slide back nicely but not forward. Otherwise if the button was mandatory you wouldn't be able to slide it either way.
Why design something to make a "you are breaking me" sound when used as intended?
@@MrCmon113never used a ratchet wrench?
The problem... THE PASSENGER TELLING ME WHAT TO DO
Today I was at a red light and I crept just to make the guy behind me creep as well. It's so funny like a chain reaction 😂😂
but really, I don't get the people who randomly brake everywhere
I just have fucking awful throttle control
I dont get the handbrake button? -.-
if you don't push the button in when pulling up the handbrake, it can wear out the cogs a lot quicker in the mechanism
+Adam Walker and the sound is unbearable lol
+Morten Nielsen It's a Car Throttle thing, doesn't actually matter in reality. That's a ratcheting mechanism made to do that. Source: Engineering Explained.
Mines more of a habit, driving instructor used to go mad at me when I used to do that on my lessons haha
+Yameng Zhang (Paul) Sounds like someone is getting his neck broken D=
I am the only one who actually likes the sound of the handbrake?
I’m watching this now and I think Alex is the only one who’s changed more, Ethan still looks the same now🤣🤣
Also, the “loosing your s🚗🚗t at the roundabout” part. Is it ironic that Ethan made that noise whilst driving next to a Royal Mail lorry?🤣 sorry Jack.
2:21 How was the fuel price under £1 4 years ago?!
None of these are as bad as having a serious car guy as a passenger who moans about every aspect of your driving
Don't drive like an idiot then. :)
Chris Boom exactly I️ had slow and stupid drivers
That’s the point. If he sat silent do you think this video would be interesting?? Hm? Do you? Fuckin idiot
The button is actually just to release the ratchet mechanism.
1:56
This must be the worst.
It's been AGES since there was a new "Two Guys One Car." Glad these are being made again. Always so funny.
Watching this towards the end of 2019, at 2:15 the fuel is below a £1/L and remembering that fuel used to be belw £1/L
Why is it a mistake to pull the handbrake without pushing the button? The button is there to be used when releasing the handbrake to start going, not for the other way around. Ok, sure, the sound is annoying to you, but it is NOT A MISTAKE, just a personal thing, less noise or whatever.
Omg this was JOKES!!!!! 😂😂😂
People who creep at the lights and then take off really, really slowly give me the shits.
"This! No lube!" Laughed my rear off ! :D
2:14 the petrol prices then😭
The world was better back then.
You don't need to depress the handbrake button
You guys should make one episode where Ethan is like the car guy and Alex is the non-car guy
A lot of these are wrong/aren't problems.
A car guy would know that you know need sit and warm up your engine anymore.
flacksuage You do with a rotary engine
That's an old technique used for carburetor engines. I think every or almost every vehicle made these days is EFI, they can run just fine in the cold.
Emil Borchert Other than the fact that the oil is cold and thick so your wearing your engine by reving it high. Just wait 10 seconds for the oil to get to all the parts, and drive gently for 5-10 mins and the coolant will be up to temp and the oil will be thinned out considerably so it can actually flow in the engine to do its thing.
#2 "You're being a moron" cracked me up!
If ethan does drive like that, he wouldn't last 5 minutes on my commute to college.
these guys for top gear
G
There is no reason to press that button. It is a ratchet mechanism and it is made to do that.
They wouldn't put the button there if your supposed to just rip it up.
They put the button there to release the brake, genius.
educate yourself before you comment
Well even so, it doesn't take any more time to just press the button in.
Silus Jackson Okay, but there still isn't a reason to press the button is what I was saying.
You skipped the worst part. After parking like a douche.... Non-Car guys (and girls) just throw the door open into the car next to them.
100% agree, why some people think it's ok to do this to someone else's car I'll never know. I always park in the far corner of a supermarket car par now for this exact reason!!!
You two are insane. Thank you.
2:37, he didn't lose his shit at the roundabout, he lost his shit because the cop car was right behind him. :D
this was hard to watch, fucking handbrake button. cracks me up
The thing about the handbreak is just stupid, I prefer not to press the button while I m pulling it and it's not a fucking mistake.
I never press the handbrake button, while pulling the handbrake :(
+SingleTurboSupra that really annoys me lol makes me cringe
Same here now i know thats bad
John Stewart It's not really that bad, there are a lot of conflicting arguments about wearing out the ratchet but I personally hate the noise it makes :P
I miss these 2 guys 1 car videos there brilliant, well done guys
No joke I'm literally laughing my ass off throughout all of their vids 😂😂
Ok so the ratchet on the handbrake? really? The car lights being on actually reduce accidents it is the reason day lighters are now standard. Creeping at the lights is physic 101 an object in motion takes less energy than an object stopped (ok so I am grasping on the last one, I just like to creep)
Daytime headlights are compulsory, not fog lights. highway code rule 211,"you MUST NOT use front or rear fog lights unless visibility is seriously reduced...you MUST switch them off when the visibility improves". It is an offence and you can be fined for it, you fuckwit!!!
J1M1F While what you say regarding Fog lights is true in my jurisdiction it is not true in all jurisdictions. So before you call people Fuckwit check your facts
Brian M...Regardless as to the legality, it still dazzles other drivers for no good reason, which is a hazard.
J1M1F Sure but if I had the choice I would be asking other drivers to use their flickers before turning off their fog lights
Who's here in 2019?
Who cried when they saw 98.9p a litre?
"10 Stupid Mistakes Non-Car Guys Make While Driving"
being an annoying passenger who can't shut up makes the driver more nervous.. never comment on driving unless its critical
also you never should need to press the hand break button to pull it up, thats just something you think you need to do.. it's for disabling the handbrake
This is brilliant, laughed all the way through hahahaha
This channel is a definite relief for us car guys.
#1, 4, 5, and 6 don't apply to me in my Tesla :D
:D
+The Lavender Town Project That's because you're not driving, you're a passenger in your own car. Your Tesla could drive itself while you read the paper. You're useless and unneeded for the act of "driving".
+Bob Hope Someone is upset , hahaha xD
+JanusPrime Who's that?
The title is "Mistakes non-car guys make WHILE DRIVING"
The Tesla is capable of driving itself and is trying to turn you from a driver into a passenger. If you're a passenger on a bus is that the same thing as driving a bus?
Bob Hope Does the Tesla have a steering wheel? Check. Break and Accelerator? Check. Gearshifter? Check. Do you drive it? Yes. Is your point valid? No.
The Tesla isn't "trying" to make you anything. It's an inanimate object. It could drive autonomously, yes, just like ANY other car with the sufficent technology inside, which is amazing.
Just because you CAN be a passanger, doesn't mean you are. You could still knock out the bus driver and drive that thing yourself, so to speak.
Isn't that just ratchet mechanism being properly engaged on the handbrake? Nothing wrong with that
Nothing wrong with pushing the button either. I guess different people learn different things
People claim it causes extra wear but in reality even with that wear that handbrake will outlast almost everything on that car.
disliked only because dislikes was on 666. can't have that.
Lol at the scream next to a royal mail lorry at 3:02
People watching at the end of 2019 will understand?
4:34 best bit
