Aye, i thought that too. I was meaning more, How could someone let that happen? I used to have an auto and a couple of times when i first got it, Id edge forward slightly from time to time, Just while i got used to it in the first couple of weeks but to give an X5 enough welly to bigfoot up 2 cars, From that position is just madness

As plippy suggested, it was prob a WOMAN.

Seriously though, I agree, I would think it would be hard enough to monster truck your way over a couple of cars in an x5 on purpose, let alone by accident.

Saying that, my parents next door neighbour, put a Honda Civic straight through a wall years ago, in similar circumstances. Thinking about it, that was a woman too

And the cheek to sneak away leaving mayhem behind.

My wife saw similar last night tho not as impressive in a hospital car park, woman drove over the kerb along the pavement,over a grass verge pushed a bin into a no entry sign flattened both, sat for a minute whilst people approached then without a second glance took off, thanfully no pedestrians close by!!! amazing
