Taking your first driving lessons is kinda like taking your first baby steps; it can be a nerve-wracking experience and you’re bound to make mistakes. However, some mistakes can be more costly and far more dangerous than others…

A woman from Częstochowa, Poland, got herself into a life-threatening situation during a driving lesson in an enclosed area when she accidentally stepped on the gas pedal instead of the brake driving the Suzuki Swift hatchback right into a concrete barrier and out to a main freeway!

Luckily, there were no cars crossing the road at the time.

Naturally, the accident poses several important questions such as why wasn’t the instructor in the car with her and why was the test area located on the side of a public road.

If any of our Polish readers would like to help with the translation from the video, leave a note in the comments section.
