Final written warning and a guard rail installed. Seems like poor planning to have a two inch curb as the only protection from a three foot drop into a pond.

At least the engine did not become immersed. New shift pattern issue?

I worked at the dealer next door. What I heard from a friend working at Porsche was that they were painting the entire car. The brake calipers were in the paintshop so the car had no brakes. The mechanic didn't see the note in the car and drove it out front so you could see it from the freeway. As you see no brakes near a small river makes for a parking nightmare.
