[ROLF of the HILL COUNTRY]

” better for someone who doesn’t know the key position you’re talking about.”

I'm sorry you didn't get taught this in Driver's Ed: rule number one is to know your vehicle before driving! When you get a new car, READ THE OWNER”S MANUAL!!!

Would that actually be in the owner’s manual? Every time I’ve wanted an answer to a question I thought would be in the owner’s manual, I didn’t find it there.

I guess I could commit the owner’s manual to memory, but it is rather dry reading. Or next time I’m in a panic situation, I’ll just consult the owner’s manual. Or maybe I could Google it on my iPhone! Or better yet, I can go over the list of federal ‘safety’ mandates in my head by year to figure out if the latest ‘key position’ option is actually included in my car and what it is.

Or I can just shift the car into neutral, come to a stop and shut the engine off, like I have in the past.

Decisions, decisions...
