Sorry pal, this happened in B.C. Canada. The "wild west" where the r@pe of land and people continues unabated.
I think she didn't realize the back end would turn on a different line than the front end. I don't know if that is dumb on her part, slow witted, or if it was simply a possibility outside of her experience.
