 Neutral or In Gear When Parking - Dave_
Working in the motor trade I leave the handbrake on and manual 'boxes in neutral, because I don't know what protocol the next driver to move the vehicle may employ.

In my own vehicle, I always leave it in gear/Park and don't pull the parking brake on mega hard unless on a steep incline.

Always leave vehicles on trailers/transporters in gear wherever possible, apart from Jaguar MkIIs which have a design fault causing first gear to come off the shaft if the car is pulled backwards.
