Funny News Story

I read this news story yesterday on KUTV 2's website and the headline caught my eye!

Woman Calls Orem Police To Free Her From Her Locked Car

Last Update: 6/02

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.


This story made me laugh, what is embarrasing is that she if from Utah and that it actually made the headlines!
