Woman, 67, abandons car after getting stuck driving out of car park

A woman in Warsaw, Poland, abandoned her car after she jammed it between two walls trying to drive away from a car park.

Wiola Nowicka, 67, attempted to turn around in the car park's narrow driveway once she noticed the high prices she would have to pay.



Nowicka's bad sense of judgement resulted in the driveway being blocked for five hours, as her car was wedged between the driveway walls.

'I didn't mean to be a nuisance,' said Nowicka. 'After a few turns I couldn't go backwards or forwards any more.' Engineers were able to get the car out from the tight space, with careful inch by inch precision.

That reminds me of that scene in the first Austin Powers movie :-D

I wonder why she felt the need to turn the car around in that tight spot, after all her car obviously has a reverse gear and she knows how to use it.
