I had some issues with my car when I arrived at the park

This day began as usual with my daily routine and continued with my freelance projects. But it ended a bit stressful and not very pleasant. When I arrived at the park for my daily outdoor activity closer to the evening, I suddenly had some issues with my car battery. It happened when I wanted to start the car and drive home. My car's dashboard showed me a message saying that the battery was discharged. That meant I couldn't start the engine, and all I could hear were a few loud clicks from the starter area.

Luckily, I still had one way to try to start the engine because I had parked my car on an uneven place. This gave me an opportunity to roll the car backward and try to start the engine that way. So I shifted into reverse, pressed the clutch, and turned off the parking brake. The car started moving backward pretty quickly, and after a few meters (2–3), I released the clutch to connect the engine with the transmission. And then I felt a huge relief because the engine successfully started, and I could drive home.

Honestly, it was my last real chance to start the engine. If it hadn't worked, my car could have gotten stuck in the middle of the parking area in the dark or even during the night until morning, as it was already about 6 PM and the sun was going down. I also noticed only two other cars in the parking area, so I wasn't even sure if anyone was there who could help me or not.

Still, when I arrived home, I texted my relative about the special tool for charging a car battery, as he already had experience with discharged batteries. So I decided to drive there, pick it up, and bring it home to charge my battery too. Tomorrow I need to remove the battery from the car, bring it home, and try to charge it.
