That law is fairly scary with the wrong naming of items.
IMO, the words 'Parking Brake' should not even be used at all. It should be called Emergency brake. Which is to be used if the main brakingsystem of a car fails
Remember how many old cars had that brake on the rear of the transmission? Wouldn't be much use in an emergency where the driveline failed.
Owners manuals back to the forties call it a "parking brake", the often-used term "emergency brake" is the misnomer.
