    When I’m driving my stick I’ll let the car roll back just a touch at a red light as a car comes up behind me. They might not know it’s a standard, but they give me more room on the hill.

    And sometimes you really need it with a manual. I had rented a manual in Europe and was attempting to exit an underground parking garage in Ronda Spain. The exit ramp had to have been over 45 degrees. Thankfully there was no one tailgating me as I rolled backwards.

    Emergency brake comes in handy in this. Just add more gas - the youngsters will like the chirping of the tires. :)

    Still in operation :)

    From Wikipedia
    The Roller Coaster, often nicknamed the White Roller Coaster due to the previously white color, at Lagoon Amusement Park in Farmington, Utah, United States, is the oldest roller coaster at the park. It is a wooden roller coaster owned by Lagoon. Built in 1921 and operating ever since, the Roller Coaster is the seventh oldest roller coaster in the world and the fourth oldest in the United States.

    We need new material guys.
    Too many reposts of old posts.
    I have had at least 7 of my posts reposted.
    The sad part is that the new reposts get more laughs than the original.
    I too am guilty of doing at least one repost which I deleted with an apology.

    Yes, but it is loosing its white color since they don’t paint it anymore.
