It's friday, I don't find that funny, but damn, Before you leave the garage, open the door first.

Looks like they started the car with the door closed and then possibly and accidentally hit the gas pedal instead of the brake pedal.

It must be you guys get used to pushing the clutch before you start the car, up till recently none of our cars had this feature and its rare to see this sort of accident! What does bug me is when people remove the safety switch on an auto so it will start in any gear and just shoot off forwards or backwards.

The damage isn't severe -- a little buff and some duct tape fix that up. ��

If that garage door hadn't stopped him, he would have clipped his right rear quarter panel. Look how it was heading towards the door jamb.
