Nervous 63-year-old flips vehicle in catastrophic driving test, Argentina videos shows
A 63-year-old driver got nervous and crashed during her driving test in Argentina, video shows.
The driver was taking the test at around 9 a.m. on June 7 in Lanus, just south of Buenos Aires, when she “got nervous” during a maneuver and hit a curb on the test course, according to a post on Facebook from Defensa Civil Lanus, a local public safety agency.
A video then shows her accelerating, hitting a light pole and flipping the vehicle on its side.
The video has been shared by many news outlets, including 10 Tampa Bay.
After the crash, first responders went to the site to free the woman from inside, according to Defensa Civil Lanus. The agency shared photos of the rescue on Facebook. It is unclear if anyone else was inside the vehicle at the time.
The woman, who was wearing a seat belt, suffered minor injuries and was taken to a hospital for help with her nerves after the crash, the post says.
The Municipality of Lanus did not immediately respond to a request for comment from McClatchy News.
