Hey now, that's my picture...

This really happened, and it happened at 160 SW Edgeway Drive, Beaverton, OR, 97006. Right outside my front door. I wasn't the driver, but the dude driving the blue car pulled out of his spot in reverse, with full gas going on there, and ramped right up the curb. It was quite unbelievable.

Lemme see if I can drum up some more pictures of this for you guys.

At any rate, feels good to have contributed some OC.

The whole time I was thinking "Wow I swear this is Oregon" because I live here.

Then I check comments and what do you know.

Oregon drivers are terrible.

I knew I recognized those apartments. I used to live there, Club at the Green right?

Ah, I only lived there 3 years, I guess all the apartment complexes look the same.

[–]wild-tangent 0 points1 point ago

Yeah! I knew it! The person likely panicked, confused their brake and gas pedal, and stomped it into the floor.

How the fuck does that happen?

[–]wild-tangent 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I'd imagine either it's a person driving using both feet (one for braking one for gas) or just something going mildly wrong, and them just hitting the nearest pedal. sometimes it's the brake, sometimes not.

[–]Psythik 1 point2 points ago

But then which foot controls the clutch? :p

[–]wild-tangent 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

It might well be that it's a person used to driving a manual. Their left foot, accustomed to resting on a clutch and feeling it, means that the one to the right must be the brake. Their right foot "changes" over to the "brake" pedal, to the right of the "clutch (in reality the brake)" and hits it. Hard. Vroom crunch.

Anyone have any idea how the hell this happened? I've been staring at it for far too long and I can't figure it out.

someone panicked (two guesses what kind of person "panics" when faced with adversity) and just started stomping pedals. They were probably in reverse, hit the curb, then bounced up onto the other vehicle.

The idea of people "panicing" while behind the wheel is terrifying.

[–]tyrantlytamale 7 points8 points ago

Blue car was backing up and jumped the curb with enough speed to hit the grey car high and continue to back over it.

[–]GillicuttyMcAnus 5 points6 points ago

Probably one of them stuck acceleration pedals; you know how them there Toyodas is. Given that its one of them front wheel drive deals, I would wager that your cipherin on the issue could almost certainly be the most plausible hypothesis yet proposed.

Starts with

ends with

glad i'm not the only one. Maybe the toyota backed out and hit the honda?

[–]Realworld 5 points6 points ago

Maybe the toyota backed out and hit the honda?

That's the only way that makes sense, with a little modification:

Honda is rocked to the left with Toyota resting on Honda's right side, so impact came from right. Toyota rolled Honda instead of pushing it, so Toyota hit with an upward force component. Hitting red planter curb at speed bounced Toyota rear upward just before contacting Honda.

Most likely scenario: Toyota driver was backing at speed (lost control in corner and spun out?) before entering scene from the right.

I don't think he/she lost control, I speculating that he/she probably put into the wrong gear and tried to "accelerate" away.

Usually you don't put a lot of gas on the reverse gear, you'll probably hit something and stop immediately.

I like to imagine there's a ramp right to the left of the photo, and he simply didn't have enough speed to clear the jump.

[–]ivanmarsh -2 points-1 points ago

Thought they were in drive but were in reverse, reacted to the car moving contrary to expectation by jamming the gas pedal to the floor thinking it would move the car in the opposite direction of travel... causing unexpected acceleration in reverse.

Tyrone: I didn't see it there.

Vinny: It's a Honda Civic, Tyrone. Its not as if it's a packet of fucking peanuts, is it?

Tyrone: It was a funny angle.

[All three turn and look back at the car]

Vinny: It's behind you Tyrone. Whenever you reverse, things come from behind you.
