Firework chase

Last night i had a near miss with a firework going off in my face.  The car in front decided it was a great idea to light a firework and throw it out the window.  My window was open, and it came into my car and landed on the passenger seat. Grabbing hold of it, and throwing it back out - it then exploded with a bang. A near miss, for sure!

Now, understandably i was a little bit unhappy about this. So decided to follow the car in front who'd just done this to me.  They knew i was unhappy and onto them, so floored it onto the motorway. their crappy 1.4l was no match for my 2.0l - so quickly caught up with them - they came off at the next exit, thinking i hadnt seen them trying to make me think they were going to stay on the motorway. Coming up behind them at the bottom of the slip road, they stopped at some traffic lights which were red.  They panicked, threw two boxes of fireworks out the window and legged it through the red light.  I felt happy knowing i'd just freaked them out enough, to think twice about doing it again - but not happy in that if i hadn't been as quick thinking, i could have had serious injuries / burns.

Forgotten to shut your door?

Yesterday I was driving along and a car coming the other way had his drivers door open. It appeared to be that he was holding open with this foot!

Now - a few questions immediately sprung to mind.

1. What has happened in that car to make leaving the door open a good idea? someone with a serious gas problem in the car? has an egg just purchased from Makro just exploded? Was the air con broken? or was the driver of the car so outraged with the quality of his driving, that he was considering jumping from the car to save himself?

2. What foot was he powering the car with, if his right foot was holding the door open?

3. Can you imagine explaining to the police why a motorbike crashed into him? "well you see i had the door open..."  It's not going to end well!

4. What mental institute had this person just escaped from?
