Sandy's scary story about the runaway car in Missouri is going to be featured on the Today show this morning. Dash cam video.
Oh darn I bet I missed it, just saw this and we are watching GMA. I wonder if it will be on U-Tube
My husband seen some of this video on the news and said that this lady driving this car was "one calm cool lady".
Kudos to that woman for staying calm....she did some wild driving!
She must've been a basket-case by the time her ordeal came to an end. I know one thing for sure. I'd be getting rid of that car pronto! No way would I ever trust it again.
Wow that must have been terrifying!! I agree if it were me I wouldnt touch that vehicle again either. How did this end? Did she have to wait until she ran out of gas?
She was talking to the highway patrol on her cell phone, they told her to push on the gas and the brake at the same time, and she did that and the car finally came to a stop. That was the story that NBC had on this morning, Sandy heard a slightly different version.
Oh wow... thank goodness they figured that out. What a thing to do, push the gas and brake at the same time. Who'da thunk? Good thing she had the phone on her, I know who dosnt these days but sometimes I forget mine at home. Glad it turned out the way it did, thanks for letting me know that! ;)
Local news here reported that a highway patrolman was able to get beside her and get into the car where he turned the key off - evidently she didn't have the strength to do it or something. I check three local news sources all the time and they all have a different twist on things. Only those who were there know the real truth.
Well thats got to be confusing to figure whats going on in your area! ;) I dont know the news is probably like that around here too, I just dont have enough patience to watch the local news here though. I read the news paper when I get it and can circle all sorts of misspelled words and odd sentence structures.
The Kansas City Star newspaper told that she pulled up on the gas and down on the brake, but it only worked on the third try. I doubt if even she has the story straight, though. Can you imagine driving like that and being on the cell phone, and reaching down to pull up on the gas pedal????? I would never get in that car again......or any of that kind! Praise the Lord that NO ONE was hurt!
It was on the news in South Australia, very scary for the driver,I think she did well not crashing.
Haha!! LOLS!!! That is the truth, I can carry in a million bags loaded up to my elbows and unlock the door and drag them inside and my husband is behind me with water and soda that i would have usually carried in standing there when i open up the door again saying, thanks for holding the door. I was like "ok G.I. Joe" I'm horrible I know. sigh.... so off topic.
What kind of car was that?
It was a Kia Sorento, a small SUV.
It was on HLN this morning, saw the poor lady getting out of the vehicle. She looked like she had shakey knees, poor thing. She sure did an awesome job.
Holy cow. I would need new clothing after that.
