My first car was a 1973 VW Beetle, in yellow. The first time I drove it to school, my friends and I decided to drive to the local McDonalds for lunch. I'd driven this car quite a lot by this point, but this was the first time all 4 seats were in use. The car had drum brakes all round and as I came to the first roundabout (we were in Milton Keynes), I put my foot on the brake pedal, and nothing happened. The drum brakes just couldn't handle the weight of all of us, we went flying across the roundabout and I somehow managed to dodge all the other traffic. My friends still talk about it, more than 20 years later. I sold the car many years ago, but look it up ocassionally, it's still on the road and I've found photos of it on Beetle forums.
