Lesson learned. Make sure your car is in gear and the parking brake is up before you walk out.

So I was in a parking structure and got out of my car thinking it was in 1st. Then my friend who's in the car says "oh my god" and I turn around to see my G rolling backwards. First off, I was thinking wtf is this garage not level or what? It was rolling backward pretty quick, so I busted a James Bond and jumped into the car. Unfortunately, instead of slamming on the brake, I accidentally slammed on the clutch which did nothing lol. So my car door that was open hit a pillar, which pushed the door out beyond the swinging plane. Heard a crunch and here's the result.



Couldn't even close the door anymore, otherwise I would've driven it back to Riverside. So now my car is sitting in a tow yard somewhere and will be delivered for repair tomorrow morning. I should post this on FML.

 

Ouch. That sucks man.

 

Why wouldn't your friend pull the e-brake if they're in the car?

 

all i can say is "BUNK"!!!

 

They were pretty drunk, so I don't think it crossed their minds. Plus a girl was in my front seat...although she has driven my car before so I suppose she should've thought of that lol

 

sorry for your loss, but at least it's temporary - she'll be looking good as new again eventually (I assume you'll get it fixed!). That definitely bites, though.

 

Yeaaa that's not a good look for the G.
How far from home were you n how did you get back home...?

Poor Poor G.!!

-M-

 

Damn Chase....thought you were about to say you jumped behind the car and pushed it back up the incline...haha...glad you're ok though. Sorry about your door.

dammnnn chase boy!!!
hopefully its not too much to fix that!!!
must of hurt!!! is that in irvine??

 

Yah it was in Irvine. Going through insurance so it'll be $500 deductible. Oh well, can't do anything about it now. I just hope I get it back soon.

 

ouch, atleast your car is black so color match is not an issue.

 

Damn that same thing happened to my old Eclipse except the door hit another car and bent backwards like yours. I was pissed. Sorry about your luck.
