It's the cars fault though, as it never said it wasn't in 'park'

Don't they use handbrakes in America?
Most cars in the US have automatic transmission, and if you leave an automatic gearbox in "Park" you don't really need to use the handbrake as well, unless you're on a slope (although it is safe practice to do so at all times anyway, just so you don't forget to do it when you really need to).
