Default My face palm of the night.

So im driving down the highway heading to hang with some friends when my car dies all of the sudden. So I think "crap, maybe my fuel pump went out again".
So I pull over and wouldnt you know a cop is already behind me. He tries to help and keeps saying its the fuel pump and tells me to stay in my car until the tow truck gets here.

My friend who came to "help" had to pose for the picture. Hes always trying to race me in his GTI that I walk on every time.

I looked under the hood when I got home and the coil wire popped off for some reason!

Um, why didn't you check under the hood while the cop was there or before the tow arrived? It looks like it was pretty dark, so if you didn't have a flashlight, you probably wouldn't have seen anything anyway, but it would have been worth a look.

I have never met a patrolman who wouldn't let me check out the car to see if it wasn't something simple like a loose wire or blown fuse.

The cop let me do a quick looksee, but then asked me to stay in the car, but yeah, it was pretty dark.
