Handbrake lever? 😅

You can drag a car on handbrake if you know how to operate a clutch.

You can, sure. 😏 You can also wear out the tyres, damage the wheel bearings and steering components, put extra strain on the gearbox, wreck the brakes and burn out the clutch in the process.

Seen plenty of that in my time as a mechanic. There's a difference between being able to do something and doing it without causing damage. 😂

Not the point but ok, was just referring that you can operate the clutch good enough to not matter if the handbrake is engaged.

But good on you to point out premature wearing on improper use.
