I'm not sure what I could possibly do in that situation to help that 
particular driver, except maybe call 911 on my cell phone, but I will 
be helpful to you and point out that the word "it's" means "it is," 
Therefore, it's incorrect to use "it's" as a possessive, so what you 
want to say is "its roof."  

Sorry, but that is a particular compulsion of mine.  I now return 
myself to the normally scheduled thread.
