That's funny (watch, I'm going to do that now...).

I've done the 6th gear/reverse thing a couple of times.

For the first few weeks, I'd always be slow to get out of the car, because I was reaching for keys to pull out of the ignition...

Followed the advise of a valet attendant asking me to make a u-turn onto the hotel's main front door entrance and I ran into a stealth curb. I should not have listened to him, paid attention on where I was going, and he should have kept an eye on me knowing I was going in the opposite direction. Net result, broke and tore up the left side of my lip open. Had plans of selling it but now it's just recyclable FRP.

Never trust ANY valet attendant. They don't give a $h!t.

Obviously... i felt dumb afterwards.
I'm not the only one?!? I thought it was just me because I was short! lol
