Ouch, it would be a nightmare. I have 2 sons, now grown up, but one asked me once what this was on my lorry as he released the hand break. :lol:

Easily done unfortunately even by adults! Someone who I know lent into his 5 series whilst it was in the garage towarm up.Unfortunately it was in gear & chugged into the garage door before he could get to it! The same guy parked his 996 on his drive while he opened the garage door & left the car door open. The car rolled as he hadn't put the handbrake on & the door hit a pillar & bent it back. Insurance claim of nearly 5K!
