Don't leave it in reverse. When the car is in reverse, a switch closes to turn on the car's back-up lights. Leaving a car in reverse for long periods can cause the switch to stick. That is why you occasionally see cars driving around, with their back-up lights on. I leave mine in first, as that has the lowest ratio of rpms to distance. The higher the gear, the lower the amount of energy required to move the vehicle.

The higher the gear, the harder it is for the tires to move the engine. This is why you put it in first gear, or second gear to do a push start. Putting it in a higher gear with the ignition off will make it nearly impossible to roll, while putting it in reverse or the lowest gear can allow the engine to be forced to turn, allowing the vehicle to roll.
