Stopped my car to take a video. Noticed a 4 inch curb with a 2ft gap and another 4 inch curb after that (for water run off), took a mental note, did my thing, got back in my car and drove over the curbs. I nearly shat myself. some undertray plastic damage, front bumper popped loose on the fenders, no rim dents, or curb rash, no tire damage. I almost cried. It was the most awful sound as it bounced and thudded over the curbs.

Another reason that auto-ac thing is stupid. Drives me nuts. I've had the same thing happen before getting on an on-ramp. Luckily I sat at the light for a minute or two so it cleared up.

Tell me I am not the only one!
I haven't done that, but I did once try to leave a stop sign in third. Just wanted to see what it was like to park in the middle of an intersection...
