The DOWN key is usually the reverse key, using the engine of the vehicle.
Using that key is like putting your own IRL vehicle in reverse and hitting the gas (don't try it IRL though as you'll probably blow up your engine).
I'm pretty sure you won't be able to use your engine to slow down, because your engine is turned off.
So it seems fine to me (just like in real life).
Handbrake is mechanical, so turning off the engine doesn't affect it.
