...toy car.

I officially feel kinda stupid.

So I'm out walking the dogs in my backyard and I know nobody is outside. But as I walk up the side of the house strange loud noises suddenly come from right beside me. Got as far as my hand on my Sig but I didn't pull it.

Neighbors kid has a toy car that must have some kind of proximity / motion or light detector. As soon as I got within 10 feet of it, or passed a shadow over it, it started making reving engine noises and machine gun sound effects.

Freaked the shit out of my two dogs too. Lots of teeth and barking.

I didn't know they made such sophisticated toys these days... or maybe the car is possessed...

If it's coming right at you on your own property you'd be perfectly justified in shooting it.

You have no idea.  Most toys have some sort of noise and a way for it to activate it via sound, disturbaing it, or light.  

I swear the kid's toys scattered about the house are a better security system than the one we pay for.  

If only the Bee buzzing around the toy mailbox had a dialout feature to call a central station......
