That's clearly the odd side. You can't park there, mate, it's an even day.

Mom is going to have something to say about this, for sure.

Reminds me of summer of 2020. Long story I was still working in an office but behind the building was a river and next to it was small bridge, maybe 100m long with barricades and protected bike lanes. 3 times between beginning of June and end of August someone got their car in the river. All the rescue vehicles had to come onto company property to pull them out so I was aware of when it happened. Not saying all of them were dui in early afternoon but don't have a better explanation.

You only have to worry if you're sourcing cars from Ontario. I'm one country up.

That's not a "full send." A "full send " would result in all four wheels landing in the water.

What's your preference, quarter send? 5/8 send? I'll defer to your wisdom on the topic :)

Hey, you're right. OP is a phoney. He's a big fat phoney!

Oh I don't know about that; the main thing is that when you say "full send" I'm expecting a car flying through the air like the General Lee.
