My name is Matt Chapin i'm seventeen years old and this is my story.


So a few days before a wheeling trip with my dad's 4-wheel drive club, i decide to wire in the check engine light, and a new Volts gauge, well the B&M shifter was digging into my back so i took it out of park and into 1st gear where it was out of my way.  I finnish up wiring and run inside the house to take some asprin for my horrible headache. then it happened, my cousin who was at my house visiting wanted to hear my dad's 1977 Jeep CJ-7 run. Dad hops up onto the fender of the trailer and flips the ignition switch and pushes the start button. looks like the jeep wanted to do some 'Urban Wheeling' because it climbed up and over the front of the trailer, and finally stopped with the skid plate on the trailer's winch, and the front drive shaft on the storage box, the passenger side front tire was up on the hood of my mom's van. not a good sight, sorry for not grabbing the camera sooner to get a picutre of the jeep on the van.


My dad didnt ground me or anything he understood that accidents happn, i still even got to drive the jeep that weekend when we were wheeling.
