Hey anything is possible. I once managed to lock my girlfriends keys in
here Beretta while it was running. I had her car while she was home for
Christmas. Since my neighbors were gone also. I parked the car in their
driveway. I got up one morning to find a couple inches of fresh snow. I
went out to snow blow, took her keys with me. Went over to her car had to
fight to get the key in the lock, because of ice. Got the door unlocked,
started the car and turned the heat on high. I figured it would melt the
snow off by time I had to move it for snow blowing their driveway. As I
slammed the door, I heard this weird click even over the snow blower. I
turned around to grab the handle and started screaming some words that would
make a sailor blush. I went in the house called AAA, the guy was there
before I was even halfway done snow blowing my parents place, less alone the
neighbors. It took him longer to do the paper work then it did to open the
car. The whole time, you could see half of the red on the interior door
handle. I guess I somehow managed to half unlock it.

Agreed, I was thinking of posing this riddle as a Friday
Question. In my 80 anyway, the only other way would be to
leave the windows open enough to lock the door and slip the
key through. But anyone doing this deserves to wait for AAA /
CAA.
Thanks,
Chris
