Another ouch!!
HAGERSTOWN, Md. - How did this happen? That’s what people living in one Hagerstown neighborhood were wondering when they looked outside and saw one car on top of another!
According to Hagerstown police, a woman accidentally put her car in reverse, hit the gas and rolled on top of the Corvette. The accident happened on Devonshire Road earlier this week. No one was hurt.

She must have floored it to do that much damage. What is that? A Cavalier wagon? I didn't think those things had enough grunt to climb over another car like that.

Sad thing is that it's probably enough damage to total the Vette.

Would hate to come outside and see something like that. Hope that other driver has good insurance.

Front end of the C5 is like a ramp. Could be worse...

Last week we parked our 03 on the street in front of restaurant. We could look out window at our car. Old guy parallel parked directly across the street from us decided to leave his spot and do a U turn and immediately plowed into the drivers door and front fender of the car behind our vett. We watched the whole thing. He was so befuddled that he just sat there blocking both lanes of traffic till someone came out an guided him to a side street.
About 10 ft more and it would have been us.
