I guess if you're just learning to drive stick using the e-brake method would be alright
but if they're close enough for you to roll back(and i mean a reasonable roll back distance like half a foot, then they're too close)

It's "alright" under any circumstance, you're an egotistical moron to think otherwise.

You do realize that the OP stated he rolled back 6" which correlates to "like half a foot".

Sounds like you're "in it" to be taken "out of it".
