Driver smashes car through 7th floor wall

Now that’s an off-road vehicle!

What looks like a flying car after a head-on collision with a high-rise was actually the result of a motorist reversing way too fast out of his space in a parking garage.

Ralph Hudson, 67, said his foot got stuck between his Mercedes’ brake and gas pedal as he was backing up in this downtown Tulsa, Okla., garage on Wednesday.

The car burst through the building’s exterior wall on the seventh floor before stopping just in time. Its trunk and back wheels hung precariously out of the building, but officials were able to safely drive it back inside.
