If you have a stick ****ft, you should need it.  The car will creep down a 
grade if you park it without it - done that, seen it happen.
An automatic locks up better in park.

The handle should point upwards when you engage the parking brake.  You 
should be able to push it back down to make it easier to get out of the
car. 
Are you saying that you cannot push it back down (without using the
release 
button)?
