I've had 2 experiences that weren't scary for me, but rather my neighbors! Haha

Once, I was starting my grandparents Tudor after doing a little maintenance and BAM! it backfired in my driveway, all my neighbors came out and made sure I was ok! Sounded like a gun shot.

Another time, (with the same Tudor) I was coming around my neighborhood when I heard the sound of metal parts pinging on the road. I thought it was suspicious but I was only about 500ft from my house so I thought I'd just pull up to my house then walk and go check what fell. As I swung around my cult de sac to pull up to my house, BAM! the drivers rear wheel fell off... and once again all my neighbors came out to make sure I was ok.. it was the lug nuts that fell off...
At least I'm glad to know that I have good neighbors!
