A hand brake is almost an insurance policy for bicycle riders. If the bike's brakes fail for some reason, there is the hand brake that can be used to stop the bike's motion.

Yes, but you may need a special adapter to connect the air pump at the gas station to your bike tire. Many manual hand bike pumps are also available which can be used to inflate your bike tires.
Only if they were somehow negligent in causing your injury. Riding motor bikes is an inherently dangerous activity. If you were doing this voluntarily, then you made some assumption of risk. On the other hand, if you were injured because the brakes failed and the owner knew the brakes were failing, you may have some recourse.
The handbrake is only used for parking.
with your hands
Hand brakes are attached to the rear brakes in most vehicles. Start with making sure the rear brakes are in good working order and adjusted. Most vehicles will have a cable adjustment connected with the front cable that leads to the hand brake. Make this cable adjustment after the rear brakes have been inspected and adjusted.
The right handgrip turns. Turn it clockwise and the bike will speed up. There are no gears or clutch, everything is automatic. Brakes are the opposite way round to what you find on a bike. right side is front brake, left side is back brake. Twist the right hand grip clockwise to go and more for more speed and counter clockwise to slow down or stop (along with using the brakes)
You need to find or buy a rear wheel that will fit correctly with coaster brake. Once you have that you remove all the hand brake stuff and install the coaster brake rear wheel assembly with brake torque arm.
