After putting the car into neutral and using the emergency brake, all while screaming!! Head towards the open field, not the trees, or other hard permanent objects!
did ya see the Oprah show about this? There also was a quest that was prego and impaled by a microphone stand. She fell over the landing of the stairs and was impaled. Anyway, if your brakes go out your supposed to move to the right of the road, put your flashers on and go into 2nd gear. if that doesn't work then you turn the key like your turning it off, 1/2 way between engine running and off. Did i makes sense on that? LOL
Are you saying a person ON THE SHOW was impaled by a microphone stand?
How horrible!
I actually have HAD my brakes fail. It isn't a nice feeling. You press down on the brake pedal and there is just nothing there. Fortunately I wasn't going fast, only 50 km/hr, and there was no traffic.
I slowed down by shifting into lower gears, pulled over, and used the emergency brake to stop. No screaming!
Had it happened 5 minutes later, I would have been travelling 110 km/hr on a 4 lane highway. I don't even want to think about that.
how scary for you. Yep the 7 months pregnant mother of 2 was impaled by a microphone stand. He was 3 in. from her heart. She was on the opraph show telling her story.
Put the car in neurtal and use your emergancy brake.
stacy
You mean AFTER screaming uncontrollably? I'd go for emergency brake too, not sure it would work that well, but couldn't hurt.
