Service brakes are brakes applied while vehicle is in motion,

What is the difference between service brakes and parking brakes?

In commercial vehicles during parking brakes all air is being released from brake booster chambers, so it should be pneumatic.

The service brakes operate hydraulically while parking brakes operate mechanically.
