Dom's been my hero for ages - you lot get your own
You all heard the story of how my wife cleared or attempted to clear our car windscreen? No? Oh good a new audience.
The drive is very steep so last year after it had snowed and she wanted to clear the screen fully before going off to work, she knows I hate car drivers who dont, she hit the starter motor to start the engine using the key as per normal so as to blow warm air over the screen, once it had warmed up enough. Now unfortunately we always leave the car in gear, she fortgot. So the car strolls off down the rode, rear wheels sliding on the ice sideways, front wheels being turned by the engine, great these injected cars - virtually stall proof, with her half hanging out of the car as she hadnt actually got in it.
It stopped when it hit the neighbours car.
Fortunately she bailed out, was relatively unhurt and didnt hit any other pedestrians either.
It happens.
