Parking Break Question

I usually engage my parking break. Sometimes I notice that it is on when I start my car when I didn't ever engage it. I shut car off without touching it. When I return, like when my car is on a hill (my driveway) it's on. My question is do I have to set it or is it always automatically done for me?

Garage List
Park (transmission) and the parking brake are automatically engaged when you turn off the car.

The only downside is when you're not driving your 5'er and get into a rental that beeps at you when you turn off the car and it takes you a few minutes to figure out why.
