No E-Brake = Near Disaster

No E-Brake = Near Disaster
Roma007 does his bit for public safety and BMW drivers!

There's a little thing in a car called an E-Brake. It's not just there for show, it's actually rather useful. Simply shoving a manual car into gear is not how you're supposed to keep it stationary when parked, as this near disaster illustrates.

It's a good job the car's owner is fit and we're impressed by his ability to get in and stop the car before the large semi-truck nearly takes its hood off. We're also guessing the driver won't forget the E-Brake again any time soon.
