Automatic Parking Brake

[RUGER AT4]

As I was getting into my truck while it turned on and the door was open, the parking brake on the truck automatically set itself. I have had this happen before but never thought why it would do it. I was wondering if anyone knew the types of things the truck is looking for to decide to set the parking brake on its own? There were a few variables of course like the truck being turned on, on a slight incline, door open and shaking the truck. But this is not the first time I have entered the truck with the exact same scenario, just the first time it set the parking brake while doing so.
