Maura Murray

So if you drive into unoplowed snow and get stuck would you Vladimir Putin your car in neutral to try and unstick yourself?

Assuming you have no kitty litter?

Rise, comrades.

And don't be hatin'.

Is there anything with the airbags that would prevent the car from being restarted.
I don't know the proper term but something that acts like a kill switch.
the airbags were deployed. Does that prevent the restart of a vehicle?

Nope. I read about this in, of all places, the Maura Murray Missing forum in the WayBack Machine. A poster actually answered this question there.

Only call 911 if there's an emergency.
If I saw a car off the road and one of my neighbors was helping, I'm not sure I'd call 911.
Assuming I knew the neighbor.
Then again I might. But probably not 911, maybe the local,police non-emergency number.
911 implies a serious, urgent emergency -- not just a car that went off the road and a neighbor is helping.
But that's just my thinking.
Or not.

Would YOU have called 911?

I'm still undecided.

If you ever get stuck in snow and are desperate?
Use your car mats.
It works

Interesting, helpful and brilliant.

A lot of smaller towns your choice after normal business hours is only 911.

Loooooooooooooooong.

And no summary could ever quite convey the subtle subtleties of the quiet nuances of the secretly understood and obscure intangibilities of the oh-you-just-had-to-be-therenes s of the heretofore oft-misunderstood cONtExT of it all.

So even
if you read it all,
you will not understand it.

You cannot possibly appreciate it.

Nor can I.

It's a you-had-to-be-there kind of thing.

To summarize.

Not the airbags per-se that I am aware of. But there are sensors that can turn off the fuel pump that would keep it from starting. There is a reset switch that sometimes has to be reset in order to start the car again after a crash if the fuel pump is off. Don't know when they started using those. And that may be more for rear end collisions than front end but can't swear to that.

That's quite an interesting spiritual query. I wonder if, somehow, this thread and the joyous posts which have been shared here by good friends is a manifestation of Maura's goodwill.

Your prose and inherently compassionate understanding of these intangible realities makes me weep.

Weep.

It's so touching I have to go wipe my eyes.

I would have said a prayer.

I might have consulted the Tarot if there was time. Magic 8 ball is quicker.

I'll consult the 8-ball now. It says "YES".

I remember there was a red truck...

wait...

nevermind, that was a label on a wine bottle.

Sounds like you might need your dose too.
