I was meeting a lady friend at my house and we drove separately. I parked across the street from her and coasted into the spot. She is standing in the street as I put my top up and hop out. I get 15 feet away from my car and I say to her "you left your dome light on". She quickly replies "your car is rolling" I look back and it is rolling down the street slowly. I run up to it and jump in just as it stops against my neighbors Volvo. What a tool.

Lesson learned, never trust just the parking brake.

Hitting someone's dog (not my fault) then having my dog jump out (rottweiler) after their dog.

Fun times.

Dont have a S2K Yet

But most embarrassing was a couple months after I purchased my Triumph 675 Daytona. Took this girl for a ride.. After we exited the canyon had to get gas... Was filling up my bikes tank she got off the bike to watch.. After the tank was full pulled out a bit and the gas squirted all over her jacket.. Kinda reminded me of zoolander...

I love doing this while moving in parking lots in traffic etc.




Mine would be:
1- finding the gas opener when I first had the car, 5-10mins to find it.

2-Stalling:
- At a light
- In drive threw
-In traffic
-Up hill

3-Top down and didnt put cash in pocket after paying toll($4)with a $20 and left it in the cup tray and all flying out.

Thats sums it up.

Top down getting caught in a rain storm. (Luckily I was on the highway and traffic was moving fast enough that it didn't wet the interior). But it was one of those 'Oh shit!' moments lol.

i always drive with the top down. One day it had been intermittantly raining, but this didnt stop me from rocking the TDM. I have the driving mod on the top down so i can raise the top without stopping. It is occasionally raining, but it doesnt hit me and all these other people are staring at me like i'm an idiot, but i dont care. I am just about to get off the highway when basically the heavens turned on the tap and it poured. This was absolutely crazy amounts of rain! From the time it takes me to slow to 25mph and put the hand brake up a little and press the button, i was absolutely soaked, as well as my car
