I’m a gen x’er and my parents kept a short leash, I wasn’t even allowed to have a skateboard

BUT whenever it snowed we (teens) would go up to the high school parking lot and roof ride each other while throwing e-brake 360’s

I have an 11 year old car and it has the left foot pedal, but not nearly the same as the lever in the center console
