Arriving home with the car, turning the ignition key to shut off the engine but it keeps on running!!
What could be wrong?
Some electrical issue with the ignition switch?
Meanwhile, before fixing it, what is the safest way to turn it off?

Thx

I seem to remember something about using the wrong tail light bulb causing this problem? Unless I am confusing this with another issue, couldn't find any info on a quick search though. Something about using a single filament bulb instead of a double filament keeps the ignition circuit alive when the key is off.
