Super User burleytog Posted June 3, 2008 Super User Posted June 3, 2008 Woman Calls Orem Police To Free Her From Her Locked Car Last Update: 6/02 1:12 pm Automatic car features are supposed to make life easier for motorists, but they may be leaving some people without the know-how to do things the old-fashioned way. That's what happened to a driver in Utah County who became trapped inside her own car. A woman called Orem police Friday afternoon needing help because her battery died and she was locked inside her car. When police arrived, they found the woman sitting in the car, unable to get herself out. She couldn't hear the officers instructions through the rolled-up windows so she motioned to them to call her on her cell phone, according to police. Once officers were able to talk to the woman on the phone, they were able to tell her how to manually operate the slide lock mechanism on the inside door panel to open the door and free herself. I'm just glad she had a cell phone to call for help, an officer said. http://www.kutv.com/content/news/local/story.aspx?content_id=89d59491-3910-45c2-9643-3a2fd9347606 Quote

Super User fishfordollars Posted June 3, 2008 Super User Posted June 3, 2008 I bet she was a blonde. If so I dated her also. Quote
Super User Micro Posted June 4, 2008 Super User Posted June 4, 2008 Didn't say how old she is. I had an elderly neighbor whose car stalled when she backed out into the street and she did the same thing - got "locked in." She broke the window with her umbrella because she panicked. Never thought about the sliding lock. Truth be know - bet she was very old. Quote
