The New “What did you do with your Z today” (with off topic replies) XXXIV

cv129 · 10-11-2019, 09:06 PM

True story, happened a few days ago.

This 16 yr old looking kid backing out of a Firestone parking spot. Took him forever and a half, then just stopped in the middle, blocked everybody, and hazard lights on. I was waiting for my turn to back out, was like “what the heck”, exited that car and see if he needed help. Here is the conversation:

Me: hey do you need help?
Boy: yea, car is making weird noise...
Me: hmmm (I saw him just getting the car back from Firestone)
Boy: and this light is on, I don’t know what this is..
Me: oh that’s your handbrake, it’s on, that’s why it’s making weird noise and feels like your car doesn’t wanna move.
Boy: what’s/where’s my handbrake?

I released the handbrake for him and sent him off. It’s a left foot handbrake for those wondering.

I hope it didn't have manual windows or he's screwed on a hot day.
