Was out driving to a bike ride with my friend Jason. We stop behind some old far at a light who had stopped too far out at the last second, then backed up. Stupid thing to do.
Old fart left his car in reverse. Jason didn't notice.
There's nobody behind us, so I tell Jason to back up. He slowly gets it. We lurch back about 20 feet and sit there. Old fart in his car looks confused, turns and stares at us, then shakes his head and turns back to the light.
Light turns green, old fart stomps it down and lurches backwards towards us, eating up most of that 20 ft before slamming to a halt. We begin laughing hysterically.
