| Woman Runs Over and Kills Her Mother http://www.theprovince.com/news/Surr...574/story.html
Honestly, how can anyone be so stupid. In the news article is says "It is believed the 36-year-old daughter accidentally hit the gas instead of the brake." If you realize your car is accelerating, wouldn't it make sense to step on the other pedal. Like come on, how long has this stupid cunnt been driving. Honestly, can't tell the difference between the gas and brake pedal. If she is that stupid, she should be banned driving for life.
Now, I wonder if she's going to get jail time. She did kill someone. Even though the media suggests it was an accident. Maybe there's another side to the story on how it happened.

Pedal misapplication is very very common http://www.autoblog.com/2010/07/13/b...pplication-in/ http://www.autoblog.com/tag/PedalMisapplication/
This is one of those cases. Probably a case of wet shoes and slippery pedals
How dumb would you feel if you caused the death of your mother by running over her? So tragic. That lady is gonna need SERIOUS psychiatric help

Some people are just bad when it comes to stuff like this.
We had a company go-kart event last week, and one of the women does have a driver's license, but she had the hardest time trying to adjust to the fact that braking in the go-kart is with the left foot...

She drove through the wall of her house? I dont understand how that happens. If you are leaving ur house, u would have the car in reverse and slowly back up, not slam on the pedal.
If you're coming into your garage, wouldn't you be driving kind of slowly...not flooring it? And when you go to stop, do u just automatically stomp the brake pedal to the floor?
I dunno, maybe I'm doing something wrong...I just make sure I press the pedal that I painted red when I want to stop...works for me

Unfortunately in this case the driver error would be compounded by the fact this particular Land Rover has very poor pedal placement making it much easier to hit the wrong pedal.
And I doubt she had time to hit the brakes. If you hit the gas 10 feet from the wall you're going to hit the wall no matter how fast you slam on the brakes. Posted via RS Mobile |

You can bet that the driver who did this will gladly voluntarily take herself off the road for a long time, if not forever. Very stupid and unfortunate accident.

What's scary to me is that I'd bet she'll be on the road in under 2 weeks.

People with automatics should brake with left foot and gas with right foot
But people get their rights and lefts mixed up too, right?
