Simon Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 So, it's been an interesting morning at work. Was out for a smoke, and witnessed a crash. Westbound on Derry road, a woman in a green Honda Accord lost control, hopped the median, missed the brake, hit the gas, crossed Eastbound traffic (didn't hit anything), hopped the curb travelled over the shoulder, caught air, then landed on 2 cars in the parking lot at my workplace. The woman was fine, and the people at work who own the cars were not in them. Pics below, sorry for the quality, as they're from my phone, but they pretty much tell the story.

aries247 Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 i would be so pissed if that was my car she landed on. i wonder if she was doing her make-up and/or hair while driving down the road. those are the worst kind of woman drivers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedPath88 Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 My truck is 4 spots over to the left in the first pic! You can barely see it beside the green van. I was going to ask if that was your truck or not I would not be a happy camper if one of them cars was mine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mws Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 Did you get to hear her explanation as to what happened? In America, it would somehow be accepted to be an "accident" and not her fault at all.... In fact, she would probably sue Honda for not making the car stop her from doing stupid things. Maybe even the infamous Audi 5000 "uncontrolled acceleration" defense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Posted April 19, 2007 Author Share Posted April 19, 2007 No, her cell phone was in her car, she was not on it. Her explanation to the cops was that she "lost control". There was a rig near the scene, but the driver was french, and barely spoke english, and there was some talk of someone cutting someone off. Regardless, she was charged, though, I'm not sure what with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Precise1 Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 Damn, 3 totaled cars, all from (I'm sure) being inattentive and little else. Thanks for sharing though! I'm still waiting for someone to cream my Pathy so I can get another one. Mind if I park at your work for a while? DAMN WOMEN DRIVERS? Don't worry, I'll talk Slick down. I see no joy in watching a massacre. Sorry Pez, but over the years I've learned in general that there is little that a male driver can achieve through willful negligence that a female driver cannot surpass with total inattention. Exception to that generality. At least the idiot wound up in the hospital... In the 3 p.m. Sunday accident, police say an SUV driven by a Mechanicsburg man collided with Engine 37-1 from Rescue Fire Company at North Sixth Street and Lucknow Road. The impact flipped the 18-ton fire truck, which landed on three unoccupied cars parked on Finney Avenue. Three firefighters -- Marvin Reist Jr., assistant chief; Lt. Marvin Reist Sr.; firefighter Ronnie Little -- were treated and released from Hershey Medical Center. The SUV driver, Adam Golden, 20, of the 200 block of Ridge Hill Road, remains in critical condition at the medical center. Anita Hockenberry, a township resident who witnessed the accident, said she saw "the SUV cut in front of the fire truck" despite the lights and sirens that officials say were activated. Police are still investigating the accident and have not said who was at fault in the collision B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vengeful Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 In New York State, any time you are involved in a crash with an emergency vehicle running lights and sirens, YOU are at fault. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PathFound Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 That exact model and color of Honda Accord landed on my brother's Grand Prix a long time ago. Drunk driver hit a big snow bank, the Accord flew through the air and landed on the rear quarter of the Grand Prix. The Grand Prix was fixed and put back on the road with over $6k in repairs.
