Technically, that's not limited to ICE cars. An EV is just as capable of driving into a dealership. Maybe we need a "dealerships are dangerous" thread. :wink:

Perhaps not specific to ICE but I'm pretty sure a Tesla automatically applies the Parking brake if you have to jump out...

Apparently the spiders have been busy :wink:

To be fair, it was a spider and indeed needed to be killed with fire.

They should outlaw these things.

They should outlaw these things.

I can pretty much guarantee that if they were a new invention they would never have gotten regulatory approval in the first place!
