A 911 dispatcher had to tell a woman how to unlock her car on Sunday.

A woman called Kissimmee police to say she was locked inside her car at the Walgreen's on John Young Parkway near Poinciana.

"My car will not start. I'm locked inside my car," the unidentified woman said.

"Nothing electrical works. And it's getting very hot in here, and I'm not feeling well."
The dispatcher asked the woman if she was able to manually pull the lock up on the door.

The woman said she would try, and then, she said, "Yes, I got the door open."

Worse, she may have spawned, and voted. We're doomed.

Just think.  She's free to breed and vote.

If not an April Fools then I submit 'The Griffin Rule' - everything that has appeared in Family Guy can happen to someone somewhere if they just believe that they are dumb enough.

Ah, this must be the cousin of the woman that called 911 because she didn't get her way at Burger King.

April 1 or no, the *proper* response to this kind of call is undoubtedly to dispatch an officer... whoever's not busy, in an hour or two, have him or her shatter the window on the car, pull the woman out, and have the car towed off for repair.

The stupid, if they *ever* learn, tend to do so under fiscal duress.

Duh.......however, the lock knobs on my truck are flush with the window sill when they are locked.  The window will not stop a pistol round.  But, my wife is always getting on me because I never lock my doors while driving.......chris3

It sounded to me like someone who has the capacity for thought, but completely failed to do so.  I have visions of someone who has had everything done for them all their life and never had to do any problem solving at all.

I've got a link that works. The vid predates the article.

You beat me to it. That was all I could think of when I read the title.

In most of those cases an actual yank on the door handle will unlock the door at the same time.

I remember there was a case like this, but it involved a car without manual unlocks and a dead electrical system.
