Off-Topic, but the same theme: I used to drive a van for a living. My car had a manual transmission, the van was an automatic. More than once I tried to put the van into Reverse by reaching down to the floor.  Worse was the time I stopped my car and tried to jam it into Park. I nearly broke the turn-signal stalk off the the steering column!

Sailor Steve; Yea, this is a bit off topic also--I own a Chevy and a 69' VW. If you've ever driven a VW, you know where the reverse is-down (pushing down), left, and back. Now imagine getting in your Chevy, moving the stick left and back and expecting to go backwards.
Honestly, I've probably done this--and the reverse (no pun intended)-chevy to vw mistake--10 times.
Embarassing every time.
