A father and daughter in Florida ended up taking an unexpected dip in the pool on Tuesday, after the man's wife reportedly failed to put the family car in park and it ended up rolling into the water.

The Okaloosa County Sheriff's Office said in a Facebook post the woman thought she put the vehicle into park when she ran back into her apartment around 2 p.m. in the town of Crestview on Okaloosa Island, located on the state's panhandle.

"New meaning to the term carpool - Mom thought she put the car in Park when she ran back in to the apartment to grab money," the sheriff's office said. "Apparently it didn't go all the way into park."

You have done it now- I see many on FR coming to make jokes about women drivers. By the way what a way to ruin a nice car and pool.

In Fr tradition I did not read article, I hope father and child survived the ordeal

About 22 years ago, some woman at work managed to get her car straddling from the dock to her boat. I occasionally still see photos of it on the internet from time to time.

I’m as frugal as the next guy, but this is no way to save money on car washes.
