Baden-Württemberg: Confused pedals? Driver crashes into facade

Neuenbürg (dpa / lsw) - An 89-year-old in Neuenbürg (Enzkreis) probably confused the pedals of her vehicle and drove against the outside wall of a shop. The woman wanted to park in front of a grocery store on Thursday afternoon, the police said. Instead, she apparently drove her car uncontrolled over a green strip and finally crashed into the house facade and part of the entrance area.

The elderly woman was unharmed in the accident. The car suffered damage estimated at 10,000 to 12,000 euros and had to be towed away. Damage of several thousand euros was also caused to the facade.
