Bizarre Car Crashes

Unfortunately we have all become familiar with the sight of cars being caught up in crash scenes. However, some car crashes are much more bizarre than most.
Six stories up in an Oklahoma parking lot a car suddenly appeared through the brick wall.
The 67 year old driver of a white coloured Mercedes apparently got his foot stuck under the accelerator and shot across the parking lot, backwards. He not only slammed into the outer wall, but pierced it and continued on through, until the rear end of the car was left suspended high over the street below.
Vehicles parked outside the building, were also damaged as falling debri rained down on them. One vehicle had its back window completely smashed in.
Corporal David Crow, from the Tulsa Police Department said it was fortunate there were no pedestrians outside the building at the time.
Spectular Car Crashes
The driver of a white Fairlane car crashed over a nature strip in Melbourne, Australia and landed on top of a family car that contained three children and their mother, as they sat waiting at a Red Rooster fast food outlet.
The children and mother had to be freed from their vehicle by paramedics.
The impact of the collision pushed the woman’s silver Ford sedan into the back of a silver Mercedes, that was also in the drive-through lane at the time.
Bizarre Truck Crash
The driver of a New York tow truck was texting on a cell phone will talking on another cell phone, slammed into a car and crashed into a swimming pool.
A 20-year-old woman lost control on the streets of Arrowtown at around 3am, plowing her vehicle through the fence of a residential property, outside Buffalo, after sideswiping the house.
The bizarre crash saw the four-wheel drive pirouette 180 degrees, destroy a garden shed and a concrete barbeque, then finish with a perfect landing in a frozen swimming pool.
Arrowtown Fire officer Garry Hall says the woman was lucky to survive after nearly being impaled by a piece of timber through her windshield.
