We don’t know if it’s a new record, but a 92-year old driver has garnered the internet’s attention after he crashed into 9 cars in less than 60 seconds while exiting the…Piggly Wiggly parking lot.
It was all captured on surveillance video, which was released by the Mayville Police. The driver of what appears to be a Chrysler Pacifica crossover, has been identified as Russell Kerr, 92, of Wisconsin.
“I can tell you in 23 years of law enforcement, I’ve never seen anything like this,” Mayville Police Chief Christopher MacNeill told local station WISN. “My first thought was, ‘You only see these situations when someone is trying to elude police or in incidents of road rage,’”.
However, that was not the case: “His foot got stuck on the accelerator, and from that point, he panicked and lost control of his vehicle,” MacNeill explained.
WISN said that the man won’t be cited nor will his license be revoked, but the police will be sending the incident report to the Wisconsin DMV, which will then decide if Kerr needs to be retested.
