Back to Basics
Posted on by Kolbe
Cars have come a long way in the way we drive them. First, there were standard transmissions, then automatic, now we even have autonomous vehicles that can drive themselves. But it’s not always good to rely on new technology and forget the basics. For example, you may need to drive a friend’s car someday and if it’s a standard vehicle you could be out of luck. One Alabama man stole a truck and after a long, slow chase, was eventually caught by police. Typically the words “police chase” and “slow” don’t make their way into the same sentence, but this particular car thief didn’t know how to drive standard and couldn’t get the truck out of first gear! After some time driving in first, the transmission seized up and he was arrested.
