In the USMC about 34 years ago, yeah I'm that old, I was painting the underside of a 2-1/2 ton truck using the air compressor from the truck next to us. Another jarhead get in my truck and turns on the ignition and starts it and its in gear and I'm under the truck and it starts rolling. My training that I had had in boot camp kicked in and I crawled out from underneath narrowly missing being run over by the rear dual axels. BTW, to crawl really fast, use your elbows.
The DAY I bought my Taurus SHO (boy that thing would scream) I parked at a store and left it in neutral and it rolled out of the parking lot, across four lanes of traffic and hopped a curb and stop inches from the plate glass window of a bank.
Ok, OK, the Aston Martin rolled into traffic once too after leaving it in neutral. Kayser, your not alone, there's plenty of us idiots here on PPOT.
