    This is an example of a husband that has heard one too many times:

    "Why didn't you stop at that gas station!? We're going to run out of gas now!!!" Slams on the brakes and throws it into reverse "If you say so dear..."

    There was a SMART guy here is Aus and when pulled over by police they discovered he had reversed from Melbourne Victoria and almost got to Sydney New South Wales=a couple of thousand Ks. His response to questioning was apparently he had gear box problems in forward gears.

    And a real sore neck?
    For the guy backing into the station, someone is waiting at the pump. Wanna bet that same someone went to the privy, only to be forgotten?
    Can almost hear the one sided dialog driving in reverse, and responses on arrival "Well, at least I didn't get all the way home!"
