Liverpool

He slinked out of his house in the dark. He didn't want to wake anyone up when he had an early start.
He clicked the button on his car keys and heard the doors unlock as the lights flashed once. He got in and started it up.
Checking in his mirrors and switching on the indicator, he prepared to move out into the trafficless street.
He eased out the clutch and revved the engine a little, but failed to move off.
He instinctively looked to check that he'd released the handbrake. He had.
Engine still running he got out of the car to see if he could figure out what the problem was. He saw it immediately, the stacks of bricks where each wheel had once been.
