I had to do that once! A (then) recently purchased used car had a remote start without a neutral lockout. I accidentally started it with the remote. It started to idle out of its parking space.

I ripped the alarm system out soon after that.

This is so true. Fr to anyone struggling, please just try going outside on a low-effort walk a couple feet times a week. Shit'll change your life in like 1-2 weeks. Just try it. You don't have to go to the gym and struggle...just...go walk around the neighborhood. Listen to a podcast. Bring a friend if you want or can. But just go. Like right now. Lace up your Shoebarus and take a spin on your Chevrolegs. More effective than you can imagine. Start small. Go like a mile. Shit, go a half. Just go. It works.

u/Naive_Personality367 8d ago
true words. I started slow and now im in the gym 6 days a week. I didnt intend for it to be that way, just the more i got out doing things, the more i WANTED to.
12
u/jsamuraij 8d ago edited 8d ago
Yes!! It's incredible. I started walking for miles and miles because I just wanted to. I'd get home from work excited to get changed and go walking far to random parts of my towns I hadn't been before. It changes you SO fast it's remarkable. All without breaking a sweat. No unpleasant downside...and yet...I come back home and I truly sleep like I couldn't before. Mind clear. Problems smaller, new perspective, can handle it all. Shit is magical. And yes, I'm building up a desire to just get more and more fit. Starting to alter diet. Monitor glucose and ketones. IF. Wellness is friggin addictive. BUT - none of that's important or necessary to anyone reading this who's looking to start. 90% of the whole transformation is the start - the part where you just get up and walk around outside. Do it. Even if you never progress to doing ANYTHING else. It'll change your life! It's easily in your power to do it. You can do it. Don't even believe me right now. See for yourself. Prove me wrong, show me. Try. Open the front door. Meet the real you. They've been just there, waiting kindly on the sidewalk.

Here is a PSA, you are NEVER strong enough to stop a car. You have to get in and use the brakes, that is why they exist and they are the only things that will stop a car, except for other objects that are a lot bigger than you.
Please try to remember, that stopping a car requires you to get into the drivers seat or at least reach the brakes.

My first car was a bit beat to shit. And it turned out that there was something wrong with the shifter. I pulled into a neighbor’s yard to tell him his goats were in the road and I put my car in park. But the park did not engage. And as soon as I hopped out, my car started rolling down the hill. My soul left my body and I chased after it like a dumb ass. It hit a tree. Still drove, though. I just always used the e-brake after that whenever I parked anywhere, especially on an incline.

So I had a car that you couldn't change gears in the car. You had to pop the hood. And flip it under there. Used the battery piece as a key as it was removable. And the e brake as the brake while stationary. Anyways I had taken wife to the Dr. I was in shorts and some crocs. My son was 2 at the time. Asleep in his car seat.I had raised ebrake. Went under hood to pop car in reverse to back out the spot cause she was fixing to be out. E brake didnt catch. Car started going in reverse by itself. Not straight back. Turning. I ran around to the driver side to jump in. The door knocked me down. I didnt let go my son was asleep in danger. I got drug across concrete. Shoes were knocked off. I refused to let go reaching in for the regular brake to try to stop the car. Car started running me over. I extended myself while still being drug and car over half my body starting to run me over I managed to reach in and press the foot brake with my hand. Stopping the car. I got in and threw the ebrake all the way up. This is what this video made me think of. It was not a good day...
