Default Guy tries to stop a truck with his Foot.

Like he's on a bicycle or something.

The video was FUNNY, until the VERY end

You may recognize the type of car that helps sandwich the truck to a complete stop.

He just don't need new brakes, but also new shoes...
I can't believe he thought he could stop his neglected truck with hanging his left foot out & drag'in `it on the pavement..
Yes, sadly there are many out there like this on the same highways U R driving your Monte ~> Be Extra Careful 4-Sure...I don't like auto safety inspections, but I think every state should have them Do You ?

Would your Monte Carlo pass a safety inspection ? On`no

, but do you think every state should have inspections ? When I do get out I see so many vehicles on the road that should not even be permitted in a demolition derby It's stressful to all that own a nice ride to be out on the road with so many rides with bad brakes, tires etc...

I know there are many that can't afford to repair, but they are dangerous to others...(You, your family & friends)...
Did you notice the BLACK Monte in the Vid ? WoW
That's all 4 me 2day...Peace/Out

That's a Chevroelt driver for you....

The cop was wrong... putting it park MIGHT stop it... I'd think you'd just break the parking claw off in the transmission . Had a buddy do that at a shop once in high school, shop had to put a new claw in the transmission. E-brake it, downshift, swerve, use a curb.....

Hi `Duane, good advice 4-Sure on how to get it STOP'ed
Wish you could've been his teacher, but he most likely didn't even have a driver's license

How was your trip back 2 school ? Are you living @ the same place ? How's your classes ? Make a post/thread & give us a update...Good Luck this year @ school & life...
Peace/Out from `Space
