Re: VIDEO: Tacoma Owner Learns to Use Parking Brake...The Hard Way
I'm no expert but to me it smells a little like insurance fraud. As he walked away from the truck, he didn't see it rolling beside him? Also when he went to go open the door, it looks as if he turned to look at the truck which by that point was headed for disaster. Oh well...glad nobody was hurt.

Re: VIDEO: Tacoma Owner Learns to Use Parking Brake...The Hard Way
Saw this the other night. I agree that there is something fishy going on. He obviously looked at the vehicle as it was rolling away, and then kept on his way into the stairwell.
When not on a large hill, I do. I can feel if the E-Brake is catching, if I feel a little iffy about it, then I'll throw it into gear. I wonder if this guy thought he put the thing in park, and instead just shoved it into neutral, while not setting the parking brake. Odd to see somebody in a city setting with a manual truck. -Chase

Re: VIDEO: Tacoma Owner Learns to Use Parking Brake...The Hard Way
Because I trust my parking brake. If it fails me, then I will have a reason to stop trusting it.

Re: VIDEO: Tacoma Owner Learns to Use Parking Brake...The Hard Way
That looks very strange to me. He clearly looked back several times as it was rolling, he could have stopped it if he wanted to. My guess is he didnt.

Re: VIDEO: Tacoma Owner Learns to Use Parking Brake...The Hard Way
It's definitely strange. The good news is there may be one less tacoma mucking up our roadways.
EDIT: Maybe there was somebody he really didn't like at the bottom of the hill. Last edited by TuffG929 : 11-05-2009 at 02:13 PM. |
