For additional shits and giggle then imagine the scene:
The car is parked on the flat section of a roundabout that is close to the crest of the hill.
Due to some confusion (the car thought that is was, in fact, a large red sled) it was left (abandoned is such a cruel word) pointing the wrong way on the one way roundabout.
So, I'd need to go down the 22% hill backwards.
Now if someone has experience of jump starting a car in reverse down a steep hill they are welcome to have a go.
Also- the car will need pushing off the flat section to the start of the slope, so pushers with crampons would be needed.
