Dogs Left In Running Car Shift It Into Drive, Plow Into A Walmart

A dog owner in West Virginia did what she probably thought was the responsible thing while out with her pets, leaving them in the car with the engine running while she was inside Walmart. However, in one of the best arguments against automatic transmissions that we’ve ever seen, the dogs shifted the car and drove it very slowly into the outside of the store.

She saw that there was no driver behind the wheel: only two dogs. She got out of the way, letting the car crash into the building.

The owner explained to police that she just wanted her dogs to stay cool while she was inside the store. Instead, the rebellious pups shifted the car and opened the window.
