We also have VW golf and Jetta TDI

and... I think that's all of the passenger cars.

I change the stupidest thing I did was get in the car with my friend. He kinda likes to go 65+ mph over speed limit in his cutlass and and when we took off that is when I realized it. 90 in a 25 zone with parked cars on the sides. He was taking me home.
then I got home and found out the next day he took out someones car door and he was being sued for taking some old guy's hand off with it.

(sucks for the old guy)

You would most likely be able to reach the pedals. I'm 5 foot 8 inches or so and I can reach the pedals of both my mom's 1980 AMC Eagle and my dad's 1987 Toyota Corolla FX16 GT-S.

I once drive into a 1-way street

But I was really lucky that there were no cars coming to me

Hmm, this is hard.... But I have to say, I once urinated in my dad's car.

We were in a highway in Indonesia travelling from one state to another - Jakarta to Bogor to be precise. Unfortunately, my bladder can't hold on any longer as I've been holding on for almost an hour or two, and we couldn't reach to the pit stop on time, and we can't find anything resourceful enough to store the urine, not even a waterbottle! So about a few minutes later, I decided to relief myself in the car, and it was a pretty long one too...

I was still little though, so I wasn't really scolded...

i haven't been behidn a wheel in a while, but my mate drives this sweet-ass volvo and he was drifting in the the long john silver's (

) parking lot while it was raining and lost control and smacked it into the back of a parked car... it was funnier than it sounds, kinda cool too

EDIT: his volvo is very similar to this(just without the hubs)

lol sounds funny.
One of the stupidist things I've done driving my car is going into the wrong way while making a turn into another street, and having every car behind me follow me into the wrong way until I noticed and we all had to go on reverse.

Yesterday went home,raining cats and dogs, went around a corner little to fast and did a complete 360. Was actually kinda cool.

Was driving on my bike through town,riding on the side of the road to pass all the cars when a truck opened it door,barely had time to duck underneath,almost took my head off.

That about it for this week,stay tuned

Today my father and I were going to the computer store and buy some CDs and stuff. He let me drive the Seat Toledo.

Well I sat and tried to start the car and accelerate without "deactivating" the hand brake.

It was something like this:

Me: WTF?

Dad: What happens?
Me: Something is wrong with this car
Dad: Aren't you forgeting something?
Me: Eehhhr... No
Dad: Hand-brake
Me: Oh yeah, I was about to realize hehe

Hehe it had never happened to me. No problems during the rest of the trip. Well, apart from the habitual comments by my father:

You are driving too fast

Take the steering wheel with both hands

Why do you accelerate each time you see a customized* VW Golf?

That traffic light was yellow, you should have stopped

Have you really checked if there were other drivers? I haven't seen your head moving

Next time go slower when parking, you will kill us some day

[*riced]. Uhhhh I hate Golfs and their wannabe drivers

lm pretty sure your dad would do something much worse then that... unless you really care about your computer that much

Stupidiest thing i've done, was when i was 17, passed about a month before, first car (a Polo 16V), took it on the motorway for the first time. Some fat handed tosser in a Focus cut across me. I was so busy giving him the finger that I didn't notice the reason he had cut me up, which was the fact the two inside lanes were coned off for repairs.

Its astonishing how much damage one traffic cone can do...

Is that true, your sig

Haha. Not exactly. Drove one at Bimmerfest UK, one of the A.A test cars. My daily ride's my Corrado. But damn, i want one of those 'charged M3's...

Out of the mods in your sig, Im not seeing any proper upgrades. Theres a supercharger, and an ECU upgrade is about the only thing that covers it. Youre still running standard injectors? fuel pump? and stock internals?
