Woman drives car into ocean
Permalink  

During a driving test a woman drove the testers car into the Pacific Ocean.  The tester bailed out and swam to shore. The woman was unharmed but in complete shock until she was rescued by a nearby saleswoman. The head of public safety believes that she hit the accelerator instead of the brake pedal and couldn't stop in her panicked state.

What makes it worse is it isn't even her car... She should be given another chance, but after drivers ed and some lessons

Cars can move pretty dang fast and not everyone is prepared for situations like these. If she practiced a bit more driving she might've been able to fix the mistake before she drove into the ocean.

She is probably scarred for the rest of her life and will never drive again.

I agree, she's probably way to nervous to be on the road again. Although, with more safe practice, sooner or later she'd probably get use to driving.

when i was learning to drive, i would get mixed up with the gas and accelerator too, so i dont think we should ban her from driving a car when it was an accident
