Narrative

I WAS HEADING HOME AND WHILE I WAS DRIVING MY 1999 PONTIAC GRAND PRIX GT CAUGHT FIRE. WHEN I PULLED OVER, AND SHUT THE CAR OFF, NONE OF THE LOCKS UNLOCKED AND NONE OF THE WINDOWS ROLLED DOWN, BY THE TIME I FOUND THE LOCKS ON THE DOOR, THERE WAS SO MUCH SMOKE INSIDE THE CAR I COULD NOT SEE THE STEERING WHEEL.
