I was wondering, does anyoneknow if the parking brake is pulled while driving if it will cause the car to spin out of control? Thanks.

I have never tried it myself but now that you mention it, if I recall correctly it has been used in a number of films before. My feeling is that it might cause the car to spin....but not out of control - as surely the foot brake would stop the spin when applied?.

On a curve which was what they were on will make a '93 Mustang spin sideways,drifters with rear wheel drive cars do it ALL the time.I think she wanted to shock the cleaner while she prepared to exit.

Yes, but it could also cause the car to explode! Just kidding.
