That is kinda funny.

I use to work in a drive thru back in the day and people or me would accidently drop their change on the ground while passing to their car. And everyone would open their door and bash it into the drivethru window. I almost felt bad as I would try to warn them but it wouldn't register till mid bash.

Were is Jiggy_12? I know he has a good story about leaning out of a car and picking up change.

Sounds like she was pretty badly hurt. But I have to admit there is some comic value nonetheless.

It reminds me that a guy on my rec hockey team ran himself over with his Toyota van a few years back. He had some bruises and a dislocated shoulder, but was otherwise OK. He did it in his own driveway!

We've never let him forget it. And probably never will!

Dont feel bad, the woman is a cheap idiot and should be publically laughed at and humilated for doing that for at most 99 cents.

Why at most 99 cents? Could have been a loonie or twonie, couldn't it?

But, still, it is funny.

I'd be ****ed if you were like the 5th car out of 15 or something, and you had no idea what was going on, but you were stuck there for ever until someone finally told you...

I wasn't there, but it has something to do with how steep his driveway is. He got out of the car, and forgot to put the brake on, so it started to roll away into the street--so he tried to block it with his body, slipped on the ice and fell underneath the tire.

Not so funny when you put it like that, actually...

She should sue tim hortons for having an unlevel drive through, or for having the pickup window obviously too far away from her van's window.

was the victim black? the pickup window attendant was being racist and wouldn't reach out far enough to get the victim's money... because she was black?
