I used to work off Wilshire and LaBrea in Los Angeles and one morning we were sitting in the office when we heard a loud crash. We ran outside to see an older man slumped behind the wheel of a late model Lincoln Continental with the front end of the car firmly embedded into the side of the building.
We think he put the car in drive but had his foot on the gas instead of the brake so instead of planting his foot on the brake he was really pushing down the accelerator. He had about 50 yards of parking lot to build up speed and a few of those parking barriers that he went over before plowing into the side of the building.
