Im not sure how far this will go, but what silly things have you done while driving?

I have many times indicated while going round a major bend :redface:
And today I went to KFC drive through and actually turned on my windscreen wiper to get the rain off my drivers window to see the menu board :redface: :redface: :redface:

I thought I was putting the windows down at a set of red lights and as I pulled away realised that I had pressed the roof button and the boot lid was halfway up as I drove off. Didnt realise till I looked in the rear view mirror. :rotfl:

HAHAHA I've committed a few.....

The silliest thing I've done (that I can think of at the moment hehe) is let the dog clamber onto my lap. She just LOVES to stand up with her front paws on the steering wheel. Unfortunately, this obscures my view somewhat :scratch:

Also, I once drove into the stables while putting the roof back up - there is a dip down into them and the bootlid was a second away fron closing and locking when the back wheels went through the dip and SLAM :popping::popping::popping: thought I'd broken it for sure, but nope, it lives!

I've also taken it off-roading. Don't ask :P Let's just say, the front bumper came out with flame decals :rotfl:

And another time, I decided I would dodge a pile of gravel on the driveway - in seriously wet weather. And so the car got stuck - doh! I did manage to get it out myself but I had a LOVELY mud arch and splatters up the passenger door and mud splatter on the window and side mirror. Blackout so no water, and I drove into town like that, attracting the extra stare or two :P Looked like a wicked tribal vinyl, if only it wasn't so mud-coloured, and on both sides :D (we have red soil here)

And then a whole assortment of little things, such as climbing up kerbs to make myself a parking space, driving straight over roundabouts and accidentally finding myself on the wrong side of the road... wait maybe that's not so little :yikes:

I've driven around a roundabout the wrong way once in France - luckily there was nothing coming and it was on a very quiet road!

I used to have a huge ginger cat called Caesar who loved riding in the car - he would put his rear paws on the front passenger seat and front paws on the dashboard and would take a great interest in where we were going!

This was long before I had my CC!
People who don't like cats were probably mice in an earlier life.
