I once came out of Volvo‘s European office in Brussels to my car in the car park and started to unload my stuff ready for the drive home my passport and wallet went onto the car roof as usual as I hung my jacket in the back of the car. I jumped in drove to the security gate the guy open the barrier then shouted something in Belgian which I don’t speak and I waved goodbye to him and drove down the road.
After 50 yards the lights at the main junction for the Ring Road turned red and as I was in a rush I cursed as I braked..... at that point I heard a thump as my wallet, passport, documentation for the channel tunnel landed on the bonnet slid off and on to the road in front of the car. Never have I ever been so grateful for a red light. Lesson I hope learned!
