Cars Left Waiting and Running and Running

|

We attended a party last night on a very cozy residential street that challenged all traffic. Trapped in a slow-moving vehicular conga line that stretched half a block, it was pretty obvious that the valets were overloaded. As we received our ticket, we, like other guests, left our car running to be parked.

After 25 minutes of being sociable at the party, we discovered our auto still in its place in the lineup of cars. . . motors still running and unlocked.

Wonder who would have been liable if one of the cars had run out of gas or turned up MIA?
