What’s stopping the car?! Hope it won’t get too far. The parking brakes not on, That’s what’s wrong! You tried to pull it up Without any luck, And now it will roll As far as the pole, Which will act as a brake In the moment it takes For it to roll down the hill;Continue reading “Car Out of Control”
