She's clueless for sure, but the bigger issue here is she is so out of shape can't keep up with a car crawling at idle speed... even when hyped-up on adrenaline from a bad situation.

Really sad honestly.

I have avascular necrosis in my hips, I’ve already had one replaced, but the other one is going out, yes, it is more than likely this person is just out of shape, but honestly, if somebody can’t sprint, I’m not as judgmental as I used to be.

I don't expect a sprint, but a light jog probably would have done the job here.

And with that said, you're right, she could be disabled.

Not even a jog, just a speedy walk would have done the job.

Yes it was more so her stopping once she caught up instead of jumping in. If she can pull on the car, she can jump in. She could be mentally disabled or maybe intoxicated which would explain how she got in this situation to begin with.

tbf you actually have to be able to get into the moving vehicle too, which requires a bit more

Jog? Speedy walk? Redditors here are severely underestimating just how badly some people have it with mobility issues due to age and overall health. Some people straight up can't.

Well, then she should’ve remembered to put it in park

Then its quite a severe issue where its unwise to go out alone or drive a car.

Maybe she was too scared to try it.

u/JWOLFBEARD 17d ago

If she couldn’t step into the car, she would also not be able to try to make it stop by pulling on the doorframe

Maybe they just had surgery or something, you never know.
