After that I made sure everyone in my family knew to put the car in neutral, use the E break or any other possible options depending on the scenario. Blow the engine/trans up I don't care they can be replaced, someone's mom, dad or child cant be.
Not to throw this thread too far off topic, but if you're interested, take a listen to Malcolm Gladwell's "Blame Game" episode of Revisionist History.
