Came home from choir, went to get a takeaway and my electric window wouldn’t work. So had to open the door to collect the food. Then drove home, but when I tried to open my door it wouldn’t open. I tried hitting it and the lock stuck. By then I was panicking. I started honking the horn and flashing the car lights but no one was around. My phone was on the back seat and I couldn’t reach it. I tried to squeeze my foot up and over the central gear lever and brake, to get into the passenger seat, but couldn’t move my leg so I managed to pull the lever under the seat and tip the seat back to give me more space. I shuffled across hoping I wouldn’t knock the car out of gear or loosen the handbrake. I finally shimmied across. Luckily the passenger door opened. I WAS FREE! I’m shaking and need a decent garage to tow it away to fix it. Meanwhile I daren’t drive it because I don’t know if I’ll get stuck again. 😢

Oh no! I know that panic, my 20 year old car has a similar problem, occasionally, the driver door won’t open, luckily the window usually works so I can roll it down and open the door from the outside, but I have had to crawl to the passenger side a couple times!

It’s really scary. I hope I can get it fixed. It’s an MOT fail and danger if there’s an accident!
