Mangalore, Feb 21: The passersby at Car Street here were witness to an amusing sight on Tuesday February 21 at around 6 pm.
The driver of a Maruti 800, a girl, while starting the car to move out of the parking lot of Venkataramana Building at Bhavanti Street in the area, pressed on the accelerator without realizing that the car was not in reverse gear.
The car moved forward and plunged into the space between the parking lot and the basement shops. In seconds, the driver found herself staring at the ground, with the car resting at a 45-degree angle.
The car's driver, whose identity is yet not ascertained, escaped with minor injuries. She was accompanied by her mother, who too was slightly injured, sources said.
A crowd gathered at the spot, amused as well as amazed at the incident.
