I don’t know WHAT just happened. Pulled into my driveway like I have a million times. Top was down & Pink Floyd was on the radio so I let her run. Flipped up the top & locked the drivers side. Walked around to the passenger. Door was locked. Walked back to the drivers side & unlocked it, then jumped in the passenger seat. I still have the door open, locked the passenger side top & shut off the engine. THE BITCH STARTS ROLLING BACKWARD.
Panic. WTF do I do? I jump out. Nope, idiot jump back in & stop it. My driveway isn’t too steep but still she’s rolling. I get a leg over the console but can’t reach the brake pedal. PANIC I’M IN THE ROAD. the e-brake is under my ass. I’m in an out of control Jeep rolling backwards. Slam it in Park!!!! NOTHING???
SMASH! Reach under my taint & barely get the e-brake up. I thought I’d hit my across the street neighbors truck. Nope? Get out. Neighbors are outside now. I can see I’m in their flowers & the whole thing washes over me. I say sorry about the flowers & explain. Now my wife is outside in her PJs. So I start her up & start to pull back into my driveway. This time I feel & hear the crushing of their mailbox....
Anyway. Be safe out there. I’m fine, my jeeps scratched, & I gotta go buy a frigging mailbox & pole. I’m still not sure WTF happened...
Just be careful out there.
