Test drives are typically routine endeavors, but one taken on Friday at a dealership in Arlington, Virginia was anything but normal.

Test drives are typically routine endeavors, but one taken on Friday at a dealership in Arlington, Virginia was anything but normal. 
While taking a Mercedes-Benz SUV out for a spin, a woman suddenly accelerated, perhaps hitting the gas pedal instead of the breaks, and struck four other cars, one of which was her own. 
She then turned the wheel at a rather sharp angle and ended up tipping the vehicle on its side, notes WRC.
Luckily for those out on the streets that day, the accident occurred in the dealership’s parking lot, according to WTOP. 
The Arlington County Fire Department was on the scene soon after the incident and no injuries were reported.
