Whoops, I did it again!
Isn’t it just the worst when you think you’re all sorted, and then bang, you hit the letterbox on the way out the drive or scrape the front air dam at the supermarket? What about the runaway trolley that bumps onto the side of your car; doesn’t that just grate you? However, accidents do happen. What accidents to do with your driving experiences would you be bold enough to fess-up to? What about this one that recently happened in Turkey?
It was a normal day at the office for the forecourt staff at the gas station in Turkey, when, out of the blue, a woman driving a late model Porsche 911 Turbo popped her foot on the wrong pedal. Now we all no how quickly one of these cars can accelerate! She carried on passed the pump and bowled on up to the counter inside the gas station store. The achievement was captured by several security cameras, showing the footage of the white Porsche 997 pulling into the station before suddenly accelerating, crashing into a nearby car and then driving through the store. You can take a look on this video. The footage was posted on the Turkish website Haber365, which was first picked up by Carscoop. The driver of the Porsche and one female passenger were unharmed in the incident, though an employee at the gas station did, unfortunately, suffer some minor injuries which were treated at a local hospital.
I want my car back! A legal stoush to end all legal stouches.
Now here’s a bonanza for lawyers.
Let’s have a quick look at the sequence of events that a couple of teams (at least) of international lawyers will be salivating over:-
Kids And Long Car Trips
We motoring enthusiasts choose our cars for comfort and when it comes time to go on holiday, whether it’s for a long weekend or for a getaway of a week or more, we prefer to take our cars. Load up the family, pack all the gear into the boot, hitch up the caravan and off we go! Now, a long-haul road trip is usually plenty of fun for the driver and those who can appreciate the changing scenery, but what about the younger members of the family? If you fail to keep them amused, eruptions in the back seat are inevitable – which doesn’t make for a very relaxing trip. So what can you do to prevent World War III from breaking out behind you?
Parking can be such a pain
Reverse parking is one of the trickiest manouvres for anybody, some just can’t do it, like this driver.
Yet for some it’s just a breeze.
