    that's probably a good thing...now she knows when a Mav is on E, it DOES mean it's empty, better a lesson learned early.:yup:

    Yes it is a good lesson learned early, sometimes it takes her a couple of times to figure stuff out. She was sure scared, it happened on Nall and 124th here in KC at 6:00, a very busy street at a very busy time. She was thankfull for the people that stopped to help:), and so am I.
