re: You ever accidentally tried to accidentally enter the wrong vehicle?

When I was a kid I got in the wrong car in carpool line all the time. I could have been on Dateline

That's brilliant. I thought my buddy and me were some of the few dumbasses to attempt this. I see now I was wrong.

Yep. Me and another white Jeep Wrangler were parked at a pizza hut picking up orders once. I came out, not paying attention and sat in the driver's seat next to se woman I didn't know. It scared the shite out of both of us.

Drove a crappy grand am in high-school.

My key actually unlocked the door to an identical car. Realized when I sat down that it wasn’t mine, so I don’t know if it would have started it too.

We were in Vegas going to dinner with a coworker and his wife in their rental car. He unlocked the car and cranked it, we got in and when my wife asked his wife where she had bought the nice painting in the back seat, they realized it was not the car thy had rented. Bizarre experience.

I tried to open the door to an SUV the same color as my wife's. A black lady was in the driver's seat, and her eyes got really big. I apologized, but I'm sure she has some stories to tell her friends about how she fought off a white supremacist at McDonald's one day.

So like, on purpose? No, I don't rob people like that.

Happened to me one time and the key fit. Didn’t realize it till I was in the car.

My dad was picking up parts at a tractor dealership about 10 miles from our farm and got in the wrong truck and drove it all the way back to our shop. The guy who owned the truck knew my dad so he drove my dads truck to our place and got his truck.
They are the same make model and color trucks.

I did this once. On the day I brought home my daughter's first car, I stopped to get some lunch. Because the restaurant was understaffed and/or had terrible service, I waited too long, got pissed and left without placing an order. I walked into the parking lot, still angry, and not totally familiar with my daughter's car, and got into another vehicle that was the same color. It was only when I looked at the dashboard, and tried to use the key, that I realized I was in the wrong car. Luckily that car was empty, so except for being embarrassed, I "got away with it."
