Not to hijack MrConsistencys thread….this question came from his post….doesn’t matter how much I have had to drink I am NOT allowed to drive home….p*ssed or 2 beers, how come I have to back the car into the garage?

Who puts the car away at your place?

I used to back the car into the shed but the missus blew up and told me not to do it anymore as she didn’t like driving out and then tells me she can’t use rearvision mirrors on the sides only the one in the middle ,huh??? WOMEN,show me a bloke that understands women and I’ll show you a bloke that used to be one..

All I ever ask for, when off the fairway, is a swing at it !

I am confused, which post was this from? Just quietly however, NEVER will I give the keys to my missus… Has crashed her parents Lanos twice now.. She crashed it once in a carpark and it looked like the car was a wreck… I just don’t trust her with the beast. Does that make me a bad boyfriend? Probably, but I don’t care… I will be putting the car to bed at night 8). I think the real problem is if she crashes it, I will be forced to think about which I care for more…. and I REALLY care for my car…

I hear ya MrC! I cringe when the missus goes anywhere near my keys! 8#

I drive my cars into the garage and back them out.

Car in garage?
I keep $5,000.00 worth of junk in the garage and park the $25,000.00 car outside.

Now wait a minute!
If poster driver33b backs his car into the garage, why should his wife have problems driving it out going forwards? ........ unless the bl…y car was backed in askew in the first place, thanks to driver33b ;)
You Ozzies really are a case apart :) !

Wife has scraped the previous car along the garage door a couple of times, and then scraped the current car along my work car for good measure in our driveway.

Last year, the niece hopped in the current car and busily started texting, while not shutting the rear driver’s door. Wife starts backing out of the garage. Crunch! Niece says, “Oh did you want me to shut the door?” [shakes head]

Sometimes I want to be the guy who covers his car in foam and cricket pads etc.

$150 an hour + travel expensese I an available to retrain your wife and niece in the common sence of driving.

Sigh.. lifes got a way of biting you in the ass when you make bold statements on the net doesn’t it… reversed the car into the garage today! Luckily it wasn’t anything but towbar on garage door (I was just reverse parking it outside the front of the garage). Of course I will still maintain that there is noway I let my missus have the keys!

We live on the LOW side of the street….backing out onto the footpath/roadway is blind…..it is much easier to back in….drive out seeing everything in front is easier.

Part of the post ‘trigger’ was the unreal level of blood/alchohol levels that deem you unworthy to drive. I am a firm believer that if alchohol effects your reaction times why not have a REACTION time test and get ALL the affected drivers off the road? Why pick on those who can afford to drink and have a car?

Alcohol also affects how you perceive situations on the road, reaction time is not really as efficient if you can’t perceive danger. Also it effects coordination and inhibition. I think its fair to target people with a BAC over their legal limit because it does negatively affect your driving. Apparently if you can pass you learners, P1, P2 and Black license tests, you have good enough reactions to drive (in theory).

Edit My Blood Alcohol Level was 0.00000 when I backed it into the garage XD

Garage door. What Garage door?

No choice for me. If I reverse the car into the garage I can’t open the tail gate. And back when I was married, always drove in because my ex couldn’t find reverse gear on my manual car.

I back it in to the garage every night, so I can make a fast getaway from the swamp each morning :)
