TULSA, Okla.,- A white Mercedes breached the exterior wall on the seventh floor of an Oklahoma parking garage and rained debris into a parking lot below, police said.
Police said the driver's foot became stuck on the gas pedal and he was unable to stop the vehicle before it broke through the wall on the seventh floor of the Bank of America building's parking garage in Tulsa about 2 p.m. Wednesday, the Tulsa World reported Thursday.
Several cars were damaged by falling debris from the wall but no injuries were reported, police said.
Officers were able to drive the car back into the garage because its rear wheels had not completely left the building.

Police said the driver's foot became stuck on the gas pedalSo will he sue Mercedes Benz, the manufacturer of the gas pedal, or the shoemaker?
Silly me -- all of the above, of course.

Probably caught under the break pedal and on the accelerator pedal. I have had this problem in other autos I have driven. Big feet don't ya know. Cars have small foot wells ad large brake pedals nowadays.

I hear a recall in the making and the president of Mercedes Benz having to testify before the US Senate to explain why their cars are doing this.
