Between the ages of 1 and 8 I was raised in the US. My parents obviously drove cars during this period. Upon returning to the UK my mum drove myself and herself to the local branch of morrison's in warrington and parked outside the store facing a large floor to ceiling window that looked in on a section of the tills. Upon completing the weekly shop we paid up and return to the car to drive home. However 8 years of driving automatics resulted in my mum putting the car in first rather than reverse and accelerating into morrision's rather than away. We crashed through the window and wedged our mini between two tills.
excellent.
