I found myself unable to continue because I had taken the bike route out of habit.
That's the closest I've gotten to "forgetting how to drive". I never got stuck, just ended up on the opposite corner of a park that I usually ride through but had to drive around.

I've never had that much stuff in my cars -- I always liked driving better than parking. I did install an amplifier, better speakers and a sub in my last one, but focused more on handling & power mods in my current car. Ironic, then, that I live in one of the worst-congested cities in the US. At least the auto racing scene around here is really strong.
Uh oh, I feel a smug attack coming on...
More like admissions of "I suck at driving, so I should stay on my bike."
