A funny to end the day....

WEll, it was as fun night.

WE had dinner with some friends.

They are a hoot.

They pick back and forth all the time...All in good fun.

But the funniest is when he started talking about her driving.

Once,she was backing out of the garage and backed right into his brothers truck.  $2500.

The one day she backed  up and didn't open the garage door.   $500.

 

He said he would not even talk about her getting stuck in the pond in the yard...

A story for another day!

I am a good driver, but my husband always takes charge when we travel together.  I am happy to let him do this, as he can never relax when I drive!

Dear William,

This may be true for that particular woman, but in general women are more careful drivers and have fewer accidents. They are being recruited as crane operators for unloading ships in the harbor, because they cause less breakage.

Good morning, William Feela you're a courageous guy with telling that story on a platform with so many female members!!  I like driving locally, but someone else always drives on long trips, especially at night....

I've heard similar stories, William, from others... it seems there are those people, men and women, who have an "issue" with some aspect of driving and it's like they can't get out of their own way.

Funny Story.  And as a few have said...Women are better drivers.

May be true but I wonder if they were put in different catagories what would the results

I know someone who forgot to hit the "open" button backing out of the garage but we won't mention names to protect the "guilty."

That's funny William but it's not just woman drivers that have this problem. My brother in-law accidently backed into my best friends Corvette when we were at the beach. The car was so low he didn't see it & did over $1k damage to the hood.

I attempted to back out of the garage in my truck without the door being up.  Nothing like contact with the door to make you stop.

Well, as it turns out a neighbor woman just did something similar the other day.  She didn't stop until she hit the washing machine against the back wall of the garage.

I haven't backed into the garage but I am known for not being good in reverse.
