Don't know if I should laugh or feel sorry

Just a few minutes ago as I was upstairs getting something to eat I heard this really loud crunching noise come from outside behind my house. I looked out my kitchen window and saw my next door neighbors car jammmed into their steel clothes line pole in their yard. I went out to see what happened and noticed their garage door was almost torn off and my neighbor, a fairly young fellow, was in a total state of panic trying to straighten it. After a few moments I managed to get his attention and asked what happened. In his state of panic all he could do was mumble "remote starter". I managed to calm him down a bit and got the story. Apparantly he installed a remote starter on his car that happened to be a standard shift transmission. The car started up and drove itself through the garage door. He had the wheel turned so it drove through the lawn and scrapped the side of the car from the front to the back when it hit the steel clothes line pole before he managed to stop it. I didn't ask how he stopped the car because by this time as he was telling me the story it was all I could do to keep from busting out laughing. I really do feel bad for him but anyone that lives in the north and has looked into remote starters knows you do not install them on standards.
