Always wanted to know this, always been afraid to Google it because I figured it would report me for self harm or something like that.
So, 1. What would happen if, while driving on the highway at highway speeds, you grab the gear shift knob and put it in park? Would it just lock up all the wheels or what?
And 2. What would happen if, also while driving on the highway, at highway speeds, you turn the car off (turn the key and remove it)?
I feel like both should be impossible while the car is in motion. But somehow I don’t think they are. And to a gearhead, these are probably really stupid questions. But as someone who barely understands how cars do what they do… I’m curious.
I, for one, would like to hear the tale of said ankle.
Honestly I don’t remember much, they were drinking (I was the designated driver) and the guy went to walk/run down a hill and rolled his ankle. I’m not 100% sure it broke, but he was hollering like a madman and I had some Tylenol on me for some reason and gave it to him, and I remember in the ER they asked what he had, and I recited the amount and ABV of what he drank, plus the dosage of acetaminophen down to the mg. My brother and his friend said I shouldn’t have mentioned the Tylenol so he could have gotten more morphine. I reminded them, this is why I’m the DD.
