    Amen to that, I did the same although it didn't help that my first car was very potent.

    My first car was about as potent as a Frijj milkshake.

    and i totaled it, not from being a fool, but lots of other times I could have ended it being a rubbishrubbishrubbishrubbish in the car.

    Easy, get up a good speed, 100-120 mph is good. Then full lock and pull the handbrake. Once the car stops rolling, you can kick the door open and climb out (use window if door not in service).
