狗狗被锁车内成“司机”,完美绕圈驾驶一小时
狗狗被锁车内成“司机”,完美绕圈驾驶一小时

In Florida a dog named Max managed to lock himself in his owner's car on Thursday morning, accidentally put it in reverse, and drive in circles for nearly an hour. 
The dog was reportedly left in the running car around 8:00 a.m. on Thursday morning after the owner made a wrong turn and left to check on something. That's when Max somehow hit the stick shift and put the car in reverse. It began looping around, with its doors locked.
"Then I saw the dog get out of the car and I thought this is turning weird," a witness Anne Sabol said. "It was going on for about an hour. It was turning and turning and turning in a perfect circle."
Sabol said the car then went backward, where it careened onto someone's lawn—crashing into a mailbox—before the cops could intervene. The homeowner said the driver would replace the mailbox. Finally, a cop managed to unlock the door, and let Max out. “It was a pretty funny little situation,” Sabol said. “It made my day, obviously.”
“I saw the dog jump out of the car, wagging his tail. I said good driving!” Sabol said. She added that Max drove better than most other drivers in the Sunshine State, and they should give that dog a driver’s license. Following his test drive, Max was reportedly in good health, according to the police.
