Chalk one up for the blondes
June 11, 2004
If you remember, Sheetz is always a place of good morning excitement. This morning was something a little different.
As I pull into Sheetz and into a "No Trucks or Vans" parking spot I put my car in park, brake on, car off. I look to my right and it appears as I'm still rolling forward. What the --?
I shook off some of my sleepiness and realized I wasn't rolling forward. The car to my right was rolling backwards. The BMW was off, but apparently the person who "parked" it left it in neutral. An innocent bystander walks up to the car to try to jump in and stop it, but it was locked.
Just then a blonde comes out of Sheetz holding her cigarettes in one hand and keys in another. I look back and the car is a mere foot from a car that is pumping gas. Close call.
She hops in the car and pulls it forward, really parks it this time, and then proceeds back into Sheetz to pay for the cigarettes that she ran out the door with.
Chalk one up for the blondes. It is women like this that give blondes a bad name. Who leaves their car in neutral when they park in a parking spot anyway?
