Evelynne Eliasson-Rabus, of Davie, thought she had put the car in park Saturday night as she was washing her car in her driveway, police said.

I bet she was also one of those Floriduh voters who thought they'd voted for Al Gore when they cast a vote for Pat Buchanan.

"Anybody know if the car in question was a red, '58 Plymoth Fury?"

Well, it is kinda suspicious how Christine, er, I mean the car, waited until the poor old lady walked behind it before it started rolling, isn't it?

Of course, it could have been this one:

...and James Brolin's life has been a terminable hell ever since.

Newer cars won't let you take the key out of the ignition unless the car is in park. I just bought a Dodge Dakota that is like that.

I had an old Aerostar that I once forgot to put in park. I hopped out and locked the door behind me. It started to roll and I ran behind it and stopped it. Nobody heard me yelling, so I threw my purse behind the rear wheel to block it (after retrieving my keys). That held it so I could get it un-locked and into park. How embarrassing. I was only about 30 at the time.

This lady made an honest mistake and it cost her her life!
