Surveillance Cameras Capture Elderly Woman’s DMV Crash

Running into trouble and frustration at the local DMV is not uncommon. Workers are notoriously gruff, and the lines are long. It was an entirely different set of circumstances however, that provided the misery at the Department of Motor Vehicles in Deerfield Beach, FL recently. And it happened on Valentine’s Day. The unfortunate incident involved an 80-year-old woman who accidentally rammed her car through the office wall, injuring eleven people in the process. CCTV video cameras captured footage of the incident. The surveillance video has been released to the public. A careless driving charge has been filed against the driver, who authorities say inadvertently stepped on the gas while pulling out of a parking space. Thankfully, this didn’t happen during her driving test.
