[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am sure she'll get off with a slap on the wrist but she should have her license suspended, at a minimum. It's her responsibility to become familar with a new car. I don't understand how this happened. I mean-- I am assuming there's a curb that she had to drive over. What about the emergency brake if she was confused?[/quote] Those are some pretty terrible reflexes for a middle aged person to just keep going and going with the foot on the gas. Even in new cars, the brake is the pedal on the left.[/quote] I think she must have panicked and her brain shut down. She probably pressed even harder on the gas thinking to stop the car. But again, I would guess this all happened in a matter of seconds. Agreed with other PPs re: the braking system. On my 2023 SUV if I even get too close to a car the brakes go on. I was going straight and the car ahead of me pulled into the left-hand turn lane. As I passed the brakes came on! So weird. [/quote] Some people are just terrible drivers. Probably wasn't her first accident. [/quote]
