Sheer Panic--No Brakes!

I remember a time when I had to pull my Barracuda up the driveway with my truck. I had my wife in the car and I yelled back at her to take her foot off the brake. I gave the truck the gas and it was obvious the cuda’s brakes were still on. This went back and forth until I got out of the truck to see what her problem was. When I. Asked why she didn’t take her foot off the brake when I asked her to it turned out that when I was yelling “take your foot of the brake” she thought that I was saying “put your foot on the brake”. It’s funny now but we were pretty frustrated with each other at the time.
