Car repairs can be stressful, time-wasting and, most importantly, expensive. That's why we're not surprised to learn when a person takes it on themselves to attempt a do-it-yourself approach when it comes to vehicular repairs.
What does surprise (and, at times, horrify) us, is when we see people employing shoddy and unsafe methods to keep their car on the road. Take, for example, this person's solution to a broken lock. At least if they lock their keys in the car, a good saw or pair of pliers should remedy the situation. No need to wait for AAA.
The pictures in this gallery, taken from a hilarious slideshow by Huffpost Comedy, show more incredible examples. Sure, you could call these repairs creative, but mostly they are just absurd, inept and downright awful.
