Another Case Of Sudden Acceleration
Accident Traps Receptionist Behind Desk (KPRC-2)
A car crashed through a northwest Houston business Monday morning, pinning a woman inside, KPRC Local 2 reported.
Investigators with the Houston Police Department said the accident happened at about 10:20 a.m. at the H&R Block on Ella Boulevard near 18th Street.
Police told KPRC Local 2 that a customer driving a Crown Victoria hit the gas instead of the brake, causing the car to crash through the business.
Most instances of "sudden acceleration syndrome" are caused by drivers hitting the gas instead of the brake.
