Nope, not me. But I've got this "friend" that did something similar. Going into the garage this "friend" activated the wall-mounted auto door opener to open the door. He was also carrying a remote auto door opener in his pocket. As the door was opening he got into his cart, checked his map for a while to confirm his route of travel, turned on the cart, checked his rear-view mirror to make sure there was nothing in the driveway, put the cart in Reverse, and backed up...BAM!!...right into the door!!

Turns out the door had never fully retracted all the way up, which he never realized as he was looking at his map, but it was high enough to be out of view when he looked in his rear view mirrors.

Apparently...somehow...the remote opener in his pocket got activated as he was entering his cart and while the door was still transiting upward, thus causing the door to stop----not quite fully up but out of view looking in the rear view mirrors.

"Friend" survived. You'll survive. And you won't be the last. There's just too many people here doing too many things----pretty much impossible to be the first at anything! Ca ca happens.

Feel better???
