Computer system for temporarily disabling an automatic application of a parking brake of a vehicle, vehicle comprising such a computer system, method, computer program product and non-transitory computer-readable storage medium

A computer system for temporarily disabling an automatic application of a parking brake of a vehicle, the computer system comprising processing circuitry configured to:

• apply automatically the parking brake of the vehicle;
• upon a command of a driver of the vehicle, temporarily disable the automatic application of the parking brake;
• the processing circuit being further configured to receive data from a door sensor and a speed sensor, and to end the disabling of the automatic application of the parking brake if the processing circuit determines, based on the data from the door sensor and the speed sensor, that one of the following conditions is met:
• a door of the vehicle is closed;
• the vehicle has a speed greater than a first speed threshold, and a gear of the vehicle is engaged;
• or
• a time period greater than a predefined time period has elapsed, the time period starting when the processing circuitry determines that the driver is inactive.
