More sudden acceleration
We've had another possible case of Sudden Acceleration Syndrome:
Three people were injured when an elderly woman accidentally drove her car into a store Thursday morning.
It happened just before 10 a.m. at Sageglen and Sagehollow in southeast Houston.
The 77-year-old driver ran her car into Triple R Fabricators.
Houston police said two people were transported to Southwest Memorial Hermann with lacerations.
The driver was taken to the hospital by a family member to get checked out but seemed to be all right.
In the tv version, KHOU's report indicated that the woman mistook the accelerator for the brake, which is the case in most reported instances of Sudden Acceleration Syndrome.
