I have a Nissan car cover for indoor use. It came with instructions and on the instructions was a warning to not drive with the cover in place. Someone must have done it and sued.

Took the Z offroading unintentionally after someone in the lane next to me started fishtailing. Spun a 180 at about 45 mph trying to get out of the way and ended up offroad in the muddy grass. Roadside assistance winched the Z back onto the road, though, and I drove it home with no problems. Both the car and I seem no worse for the wear

Didn't have your coffee yet Ken?

"Uncovered the car" is how I started that sentence

Uncovered the car from the NOAH cover and it was spotless, not a single drop got through the car cover even though it rained hard

I sometimes move it a few feet with it half on but even then that is super skecthy!

Thanks!

Definitely used up some karma on that one.

The tow guy didn't even charge me because he didn't actually have to tow me anywhere (I'm sure my insurance is paying whatever fee he actually charged for the trip). He just used the winch to get me back on the road surface and said it was covered under my roadside assistance

That explains the post about people that can't control their cars in emergencies.... Glad you didn't bend anything and didn't have to change your shorts...
