This recording is 68 years old and still the funniest thing I've ever seen.

wtf. Wonder what the story is behind that...

I was wondering the same thing. Pausing the video, it seems the drivers is fine. Maybe not. Definitely weird. You can hear the home owner at the saying, OMG.

Terror in our Toyota! Sure looks like the Electronic Throttle Control got stuck, huh? Another case of "UNINTENDED ACCELERATION?" She was only able to control the car with the PRNDL - 3 teenage girls in the car and just pulling into a neighbor's driveway to pick-up during carpool! This could happen to you! The car was totalled, the home has sever damage, and a car inside the home was totaled out and another damaged. Toyota's response: "...no evidence of any sort of manufacturing or design defect..." You look at this video and decide for yourself!

I call BS on that. You dont backup and then drive forward into the house again if the throttle is stuck. And it doesnt even look like the driver attempted to turn.

Gotta think it was a seizure or other medical situation.

That's a teenage girl who mistook the gas for the brake and went into full blown panic mode.
