Something similar happened to me last week in the parking lot of retail store - I was backing out of my space when I heard a loud 'thump'. I looked back and there was a shopping cart directly behind me. <br><br>As I walked back to the car after getting out and pushing the cart over to the designated 'cart area', I got a chill up my spine thinking that could have been a carjacker scam. I had walked a good 10 feet away from the vehicle with the driver's side door WIDE open.<br><br>Whew! <br><br>[color:red]Work With ____!</font color=red>

If you drove away wouldn't it fall off the back as you accelerated? I'm sorry but if you are dumb enough to get something off the back you shouldn't have a car. Am I right?<br><br>oh yeah, that's going in the blog
