Pedestrian fatally crushed between two parked cars after one started remotely
<i>Several bystanders managed to push the car backwards, police said, but "in the course of doing so, the vehicle rolled forward once again and pinned the pedestrian between the two vehicles once more."</i><p>...and with even more force, since the car now had a bit more distance to build up some speed. One wonders whether he would've survived if they had left him there, and it was the second blow that killed him, since the fact that they were able to push it back suggests it was probably an automatic left in neutral with nothing more than the idle torque. If it was a manual, stopping it or pushing it backwards would've already stalled the engine. I suppose another lesson here is that if you ever have to push a car out of the way, chock the wheels afterwards, or otherwise try to prevent it from moving again.<p>I'm also surprised that was enough to kill.<p>Edit: downvoters, explain yourselves please.
