Default LS handbrake adjustment

Hey guys

Just a quick Q, does the focus have a normal screw adjustment on the handbrake cable to tighten it?
Just discovered then that my hand brake is a bit loose, found the car half way down the street wedged up on a stump

dont know, I know the handbrake uses a piston in one of the rear calipers. But if the car is in gear (or park if its an auto) it wont go anywhere even without a park brake.

Yeah 99.9% of the time I park in gear, and of course the one time I don't my car runs away from me.
