Driver hurt after crash at Westwood Village

Thanks for the tips! The driver of that car has been taken to a hospital to be checked out after hitting the outside of NK Nails at Westwood Village. Damage to the building is largely confined to the exterior, and the salon remains open for business.

    A little fill and polish and it’ll be good as new.

    Insane how bad drivers are these days. How do you do this? Everyone in this state should be forced to re-take driver test/training every so often. Guarantee most people would fail!

      Thats my grandpa yourbtalking about there, first of all he isnt a bad driver, everyones gets into accidents. You should know your facts before you type somehing online that everyone can see because you sound really uneducated. Also he wasnt driver reckless or anything, he accidently stepped on the gas peddle instead of the brakes. He is an older men and his health also has something to do with this. Please know the correct information because you say something. Thank you.

        I hope your Grandpa is okay. I was there when the accident happened and have been thinking of him since then. Blessings to you and your family.

    I think this had less to do with his skills and more to do with his health.  I watched him pull his car out from the spot next to me at the bank.  He ran over two parking curbs and floored it into the wall head on.  He was an older man,  I almost wonder if he didn’t have a stroke or heart attack while in the car. Something was wrong with him medically.

     Another right foot pedal
    error, part of the right foot braking epidemic?  Let’s make sure we blame the driver, especially
    if they are a women or old (over 40!). Never blame the guys in charge of driver
    legislation and training who set the driver up to fail. They forced this driver
    to brake an automatic transmission  vehicle with only the right foot. They did
    this knowing they had 0 Scientific Justification and that right foot braking is
    too complicated and difficult to mentally maintain with age, inefficient (poor
    stopping distance) and dangerous (subject to right foot pedal error) compared
    to the simpler and safer (But girly!) left foot braking method. See DOT HS 811
    597, 812 058and 812 431 (spaces required).  NHTSA refuses to use the term “right foot
    pedal errors” but instead calls it “pedal misapplication” and always blames the
    drivers for not being experts. Score to date, 150,000 dead (7 Every Day),
    millions injured, and billions in costs. The price male drivers, both in and
    out of government, are prepared to pay to maintain their systemic belief in a
    “Killer”  braking method based on the
    scientific foundation of, “That’s the way it’s always been taught”! This is not
    about which braking method is safer but rather why they refuse to scientifically
    compare the two methods and continue to produce misinformation about other
    proposed braking methods. Was it driver error or the way we taught them to
    brake?

Sorry, comment time is over.
