almost had my burb run over me...
Here's one... about 2 years ago I was replacing the ujoints on my '89 burb on my driveway (which is of course sloped). I had the parking brake on. I was trying to pull off the driveshaft at the differential and was having a hard time. I had to give it a good pull and all of a sudden the truck started rolling backward w/ me under it. I had to make a quick decision to roll out from the side as it roller into the street. I had to chase it into the street. Luckily, it started to turn and went kind of into the center of the street without hitting any cars.
Probably one of the dummest things I've ever done. I didn't block it and the parking brake was out of adjustment...
