DRL= Daytime RUNNING Lights.
Hand brake up = NOT RUNNING.

Been this way in many cars for years. Many cars you cannot turn off the DRL's without using the parking brake (hand or foot).

I am constantly amazed at the number of vehicles I see idling with their headlights on while parked, apparently many people don't know this. Of course, I don't think many people use their parking brake.

To the OP - the owner's manual is always a good place to start but it never hurts to ask the question. Hope you don't take the ribbing personally.
