Escape

My car was running, but placed in park, and I was running to grab something from my home. After I exited the car, I noticed my car was rolling down my slanted driveway, and I ran to stop it. Unfortunately, the car hit me and ran me over resulting in a broken ankle. I believe the car slipped out of gear while it was running, and reversed down the driveway.
