Hello author, ha, ha, ha ... the wife and kids got you.
Hey, my car is not a rental car, and once or twice, I've
tried to enter the wrong car--it happens. Well chosen
photo. Your story made me laugh. Well done. Mission
complete. As this is a contest entry, I wish you good
luck. LateBloomer

    Thanks for the excellent review. I was hoping to find a picture of a couple of maroon cars. At the time, it must have been the color of the year. Since you can hardly tell a Ford from a Subaru anymore, they all kind of look alike. I was shocked when I saw a lady sitting in the driver's seat. I thought she was either really brazen or stupid. As it was, I was the stupid one.

    I think white is the #1 car color ... no data to support this thinking, and the other two colors are silver and black.
    I like white, but not during snow storms. Always concerned that I'll end up in a ditch and no one will find/see me. I keep lots of bright colored items in the car for that
    reasons. Safe driving. LateBloomer

This was very funny, one time my son and I went food shopping, I opened the trunk and it was not my car, we still laugh about that today. and a few times I approached the wrong car thinking it was mine.

    Thanks for taking the time to read and review this article. With the number of cars all looking alike, I'm surprised it doesn't happen more often.

This work has reached the exceptional level

Obviously, it is humorous, all the cars look alike, rather hirers find colour blind in terms of hiring my car, for all day long your wife and daughter tried to enter into the wrong cars; well said, well done; post god speed more; positively encouraging editing, negatively not wording, forgiving errors of theist-good authors-writers.

    Thanks for your generous review. So many cars look alike nowadays, one needs to remember where they parked to try to prevent going into the wrong car.

    Thank you for the excellent review and comments. At one time, it was easy to distinguish one car from another, now they all seem to look alike.

It's easy to do, I can remember returning to what I thought was my car, but it's a very popular make of this small car, same colour, same, I thought my key had run out of charge, silly me, it was somewhere else, but I've never got in the wrong car as a passenger, well done, good luck, great story. blessings Roy

    Thank you for the great review. At the time the cars still used the old fashioned keys. The car I have now, there are about 100 others in town the same make, model and color. I always have to be sure where I'm parked so I don't lose it.

Haha what a fun and true to life possibility, Mystery Author.
I enjoyed your contest entry, You did a good job telling this
little story is a fun and interesting way. I could see everything
as I read--esp the mix up with 'your' car. Here there seems to
be an abundance of black, white, and red cars everywhere.
Best wishes, Jan

    Thanks for reviewing this story. That year it was maroon. Every other car was maroon. It was a nightmare trying to find the right car in a parking lot full of maroon cars.

Your story is funny and relatable. I have had this happen to me before, and it happened to my cousin more recently. Thank you for sharing this here, and best wishes.

    Thanks for reviewing this story. I was sure shocked to see a lady sitting in the driver's seat of "my" car.
