Is there an ICE car equivalent to jumping in your EV and attempting to start with the charging cable still plugged in? It happens to me quite regularly.

@aris There's driving away from a gas station like that, which happens to ppl surprisingly often, but not quite the same scenario.

@aris Ok that reminded me of the real analogous thing: driving off with your coffee cup on the roof and having coffee pour down your window.

@dalias I never heard of that happening in Belgium, but our gas stations pumps usually have modified triggers so you can't leave it locked and the weather isn't that cold so we have less temptation to stay inside the car.
I think I may have driven off once or twice with a door/trunk left open or stuff on the roof.
