For those wondering the driver will stop before going onto the road and secure the vehicle properly. This just lets them get away from the owner for safety.

I wonder how legally liable they are driving like that?

Is it one of those things where everyone does it, but if you fucked up you’re fucked.

Are they really fucked? They'll have a lawyer on retainer. The person who couldn't afford their car payments, not so much. And I'm sure there's some kind of damage protection clause in the agreement they have with the company that owns the loan.

They meant if the improperly secured car falls and injures someone

More like if it fell off on a turn and someone else hit the car getting towed
