There are three people,
Sally, Jim and
Mack who all share a hoopty used car. Mack is eager to go sightseeing downtown and Sally doesn’t mind tagging along. Jim tells Sally and Mack that there is really nothing to see downtown and that the weather is impermissible which could result in them sliding into a ditch. Sally and Mack go ahead anyway…
and find themselves in the middle of ditch! Then Sally insists on a tow truck, but the tow truck can only pull the wreckage halfway up the ditch and besides the mechanic says
“…the car is severely damaged and even if it can be fixed it will be in worse condition than it was before.”
