Me: hey do you need help?
Boy: yea, car is making weird noise...
Me: hmmm (I saw him just getting the car back from Firestone)
Boy: and this light is on, I don’t know what this is..
Me: oh that’s your handbrake, it’s on, that’s why it’s making weird noise and feels like your car doesn’t wanna move.
Boy: what’s/where’s my handbrake?

I released the handbrake for him and sent him off. It’s a left foot handbrake for those wondering.
