Woman Crashes Car Through DMV During Driver's Test

PORTAGE, Ind. --A young woman's goal of getting her driver's license crashed this week -- right into the license branch. The 20-year-old woman was pulling into a parking spot outside the license branch when she hit the accelerator instead of the brake, Assistant Fire Chief Mike Bucy said.

The car jumped a small curb and went into the building about 1:30 p.m. Tuesday, tearing out a large glass window and damaging a door and low brick wall.

Neither the driver nor the examiner, who weren't identified, were injured. Bucy said a person in the building sustained a hip injury and was examined by emergency medical personnel but declined to be taken to the hospital.

The driver's car had damage to its hood and fenders.

Amazing Travel manager Susan Williams said she thought something had exploded next door.

"We jumped up and we went to the door and saw the car half in and half out of the license bureau," Williams said.

The building was closed for the remainder of the day, but reopened Wednesday.

The young driver, meanwhile, failed the test.

"I think it's fair to say the customer did not meet the required criteria," said Greg Cook, a Bureau of Motor Vehicles spokesman.

3. I bet if you look at the list of test requirements

not crashing the car into the test centre is not one of them. ;)

4. And the scary part is, within a month or two, she can retake the test

And if she passes, and doesn't crash into the DMV, she'll be on the road shortly:scared:

6. I dont think it's possible to do worse than crash INTO the DMV!

:crazy:

8. Nope.

I don't think it is either. Maybe when I failed the first couple times, I should've said "At least I didn't crash into the DMV!" Lol!

7. What's next for her, robbing a police station?

For what it's worth, she'll be telling this story for the rest of her life.

9. OMG I was watching this cop show on TV the other day

and they were back at the station processing a drug dealer that they had busted after a car chase (usual stuff for these kind of shows). Anyway, one of the cops was counting the money they had taken off the guy and this other kid who was walking by made a grab for it!

Not only was the kid in a police station but the money wasn't even unattended! A cop was counting it!!

I submit that kid as the stupidest criminal ever. :crazy:



edit: And there was a TV camera looking at the cop counting the money! :rofl:
