Life I saw something crazy today (woman driver)

Dante84 · 04-13-2011, 04:46 PM

Well, my boss and I were leaving a meeting in KCK today and were loading the car up, when we heard a crazy "crunch" noise.

We looked up and saw a construction pick-up with a flat trailer drive by, and figured it was a bump in the road or something.

Now the car is loaded up, and we see a cop who happens to be driving by flip his lights on and pull a u-turn, but no siren. Then he stops about 50 yards down the road, which seemed odd, since he didn't pull anyone over.

My boss goes back inside to take a leak, and as he's gone, a firetruck and ambulance drive by, sirens blaring, and stop by the cop car.. Now I know something is up.

We get in the car, and start driving down the road. I'm looking to see what happened and still don't see a car.

Then I see that they are at the entrance of a parking garage.

And then I see that the garage entrance and exit are blocked by huge chunk of concrete.

Then I see that a light pole is knocked over and laying in the grass.

Then I see a missing piece of concrete from the second story of the parking garage (which happens to be the top level).

Then ...

There is a Rav4 smooshed between a tree and the garage itself, sideways.

It seems the woman drove off the top of the parking garage, knocking the cement wall to the street below, in mid-air hit a light pole, knocking it to the ground, then fell between a tree and the wall of the garage.

My boss and I figured that she probably hit the gas while she was in drive instead of being in reverse.

Holy effing shit. Never seen anything like it.

What? No cell phone pics?!?

Toyota: When we say we borrowed the fly-by-wire throttle concept, we meant it.

Dante84 · 04-13-2011, 04:50 PM

I know, Im pissed I missed it.

I was too busy deciphering the scene to stop and take a good pic. We were driving by at 25 mph, so I didn't get a solid opportunity.

Probably had an extra floor mat.

One would think a concrete wall in a parking garage would be reinforced well enough to prevent a freaking RAV4 from taking it out.

She was probably trying to off herself.

it's a shame that they don't take away people's licenses for crap like this

As a long haul trucker, the most common thought running through my head on a daily bassis was ..."JFC, most people couldn't drive a sharp stick through a snow bank!!"

Stories like this only make think I was right all along
