I'm looking around trying to figure out why they're popping on.
00:21
And then all of a sudden the side door just opened.
00:24
As soon as the side door opened, I believe somebody I think somebody hit the.
00:28
Side door, but nobody pulled over immediately.
00:31

00:32
I just heard a pop and somebody rolled by.
00:35
But the side door, the side door is popped open.

So I was pulling over anyway to close the doors.
00:46
But nobody pulled over with me.
00:48
So I'm sitting over here on this side street.

It was blocked all the way.
01:14
It's only blocking the normal way.
01:16
It's the normal way you come in.
01:18
Was it like that when you left the yard? Like where it was enclosed all the way? Yes, it's closed all the way.
01:24
But the hazard lights still won't go off.
01:26
So I don't know why the hazard lights are on.
01:29
But the hazard lights wasn't on when I left the yard.
01:31
They didn't pop on till like 5 min since I drove.
01:34
And I'm trying to figure out why the hazard lights are on.
01:37
Soon I looked over, the doors had popped open.
01:40
So I said, "Okay, maybe that's why they're on." So I go to turn and down this residential street to shut the doors.

I get out, shut the doors, but the hazard lights still won't stop.

You got the doors won't close and your hazard lights won't go.

I was just checking again.
02:18
They went off.
02:19
The door is closed again.
02:20
I just, I'm hoping it's not gonna pop open because he said shut it down this way, but it's not shutting down this way.
02:27
You start the door and don't twist the handle, just pull on it.

If it pops open from the wrong door, if it's still closed, then you're on.
